It's rare to witness a double rainbow, but your capture is amazing! Congratulations! I love the colour contrasts between the rainbow(s), the intense blue of the sky and the green tones of the land. The final effect is quite convincing and the photo becomes quite "dramatic". There is also a nice composition of the shot, with the rainbow(s) correctly "framing" the focus of the picture.
An amazing shot, with an amazing rainbow and a very nice composition of the image. Sea (water), dramatic sky and colours of the rainbow work very well in creating a pleasant aesthetic of the photo. The lighthouse gives an additional focus in the photo, which contributes to its final successful outcome. The hard rocks and dark clouds give the final dramatic touch to the photo. Congratulations!
I just love this photo! Everything is there: a nice landscape, a very visible rainbow, an exciting contrast of colours. The "atmosphere" of this image is really special and I certainly appreciated the composition of the photo. The reflection of the castle in the water adds another dimension to the image, while the cloudy sky actively participates to the dynamism of the image. Never been to this place, but your image is an excellent appetizer to visit and enjoy Scotland!
A gorgeous picture, with many interesting details: dramatic clouds, a very nice rainbow, and the supreme detail, the end of it in the house! The colours of the image are also very interesting, and the transition green/blue is working well in the final result. Just one detail missing: it would have been nice to know here this shot was taken...

One of the most beautiful and “available” natural phenomena, rainbows have a common point with photography: they exist because of light! Therefore, why not put them together in impressive images, where we can appreciate all the magic of rainbows? Often combined with “dramatic” skies, they can be seen in half circles, quarter circles, or even in double. They have seven visible colours – ROY-G-BIV - Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. How many of them can we see in your photo? Over water, land, mountains and cities, rainbows are also synonymous with hope – after the rain, sun will prevail. We all have children’s eyes when we look at a rainbow, so share with us your enchantment and fascination for this natural element. At the end, it will help us make life more colourful!

I privileged in my choices and in my reviews the "real" rainbows, the ones caused by natural rain. But I liked very much your image, with this amazing shot in Iceland. The landscape is really beautiful and there is a nice contrast between the tiny blue of the sky, the white water and the dark rocks. Moreover, you look very happy to be in this environment!
