Suzanne from Huntington Bch, California, United States
Ah, got enough of snow, did you? ;o) This is gorgeous. Fresh new grass following a good rainfall is so beautiful...and that rainbow...wow.

@Suzanne: Suzanne, yes I thought I better thaw out for a few minutes! Thanks for the comments!

Me gusta mucho la composición y el paisaje, aquí sin nieve.
Enjoy your weekend, Scott.

Tony Duque from Raleigh, United States
Wonderful shot, Scott! Really amazing dynamic range. I'm actually hoping you can confirm the image has benefited from a delicate HDR effort... so I won't have to bad-mouth my camera. Thanks for sharing another of your terrific pictures!

@Tony Duque: Tony, yes the range of this image has benefitted from HDR - most of my images posted are HDR - a few are not - the hope is that some day you won't be able to tell the difference - we'll see how it goes! Definitely don't bad mouth your camera. Have a great weekend and thanks for the comments.
Don Smith from California, United States
Very beautiful Scott, where in east Hollister was this? Lone Tree Road?
7 Mar 2009 3:08pm
@Don Smith: Don, thanks for the comment - this was the first road on the email that you recommended - I can't remember which one it was though?? it went way up into the hills right off of fairview as I was heading south. I was hoping for snow in the hills but it didn't happen that night so I shot a few locations coming back down the road.
@Eleftheria: Thanks and have a great weekend!
Tracy from La Selva Beach, United States
OH! Very nice! Lonely, but inviting at the same time with the rainbow.

@Tracy: Tracy, thanks for the kind words and it is a beautiful weekend!
@Veronelle: thanks for the kind words!
Judy from Brooksville, Florida, United States
I looks as though the end of the rainbow found the 'pot' of gold! Well done!
7 Mar 2009 9:48pm
@Judy: Pot of gold would be nice in the current economy!
@Stefan: thanks for the kind words and stay warm in Austria!

Fantastic. This must be what heaven looks like.
8 Mar 2009 12:34am
@dogilicious: I could imagine it like this! Green Hills, beautiful clouds, and rainbows - not a bad Heaven! If I didn't have to go to work after shooting this I think it would have been Heaven!
Cricket-Tammy from United States
Very nice. The random "white" clouds make the sky come alive.
