Rainbow in full Arc

It was late in the afternoon and it was raining hard. Soon after the

rainbow appeared, warmly lit by the setting sun. The rainbow lasted

for about 8 minutes before starting to vanish from the horizon.

 

Comments/critiques appreciated.

This looks very well.

But, is this really real? how much postprocessing?

And,... I prefer little bit more pix. (bigger photo)

Yes, it's not lens flare, that's real one. Minimal post process, I used levels and vibrance to emphasize the warm glow of the sun (which is shining directly at my back while I took the shot), also adjusted the fill light to show the pineapple plantation in the foreground. Then resized and applied sharpening.
