Storm at sea

I think, this picture is going to be one of my favourites for a long time. After a rather exhausting day (I got up very early to catch the sunrise, and took, amongst others, this photo www.flickr.com/photos/94941635@N07/8804943620/), I had an equally exhausting walk to the lighthouse in Punta Sabbioni in the evening. The Sun was about to set over Venice (behind me), while a heavy rainstorm was raging at sea. This constellation produced the wonderful lighting, and the double rainbow. I only boosted the saturation of the rainbow with a circular polariser, otherwise, the scene was exactly as in the picture. The mood of the location completely changed in a couple of minutes: www.flickr.com/photos/94941635@N07/8805623862/
