Hi! Since you have Photoshop and Corel Paint, I am assuming that you are somewhat photo-editing savvy. Therefore I should simply be able to explain to you how to do this, however I have provided some tutorial links also.
This is similar to a selective color technique where the photo is turned black and white, except for one item or object. Select or mask the object using whatever method is most comfortable to you. Then use the Gradient tool to color it as a rainbow (on a new layer) with whatever specifications you set—50% opacity, etc.

Thanks for asking this question. Best wishes!
Customize a gradient, with 5 or 6 points, put the rainbow colors into those points, and then reduce the transparency of the layer. I dont know the procedure in GIMP to do this, as i use photoshop, but I know GIMP is a good product and you should be able to do it. That is how it would be done in photoshop.
