Hi Bob,

Aside from the rainbow, this photo has more going for it with the rushing water in the foreground. But I would try to get even more brightness in the rushing water to get more of a dynamic feel to the photo.

Thank you @Youssef_Ismail for your opinion. Perhaps I could simulate a split neutral density filter, but I believe the foreground will get blown out easily.
