This is Michigan's Mackinac Bridge. The upper peninsula residents like to joke with the lower peninsula residents by calling them Trolls, ie. they live under the bridge :)

*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

A pleasing record shot of an attractive bridge

This is the second shot of yours of this bridge I have had the pleasure of commenting on, from the outset I have to say I prefer the other, the lighting is much better. You have an interesting sky as an effective backdrop which is nice but the foreground is the main problem here, it interferes rather than enhances the image. It's a real shame you weren't able to get into a more elevated position whereby you could include the foreground without it impeding upon the bridge itself.

The bridge is a very attractive example of practical engineering and thus will always make an attractive image which is why it needs enhancing in some way to make it stand out from the crowd. You achieved that with your other image through the quality of the light, with this one however, I'm afraid you haven't managed it as well.I hope the water's not like that all year round!

Thanks for your submission, Sid

Mackinaw Bridge. Very Nice. I know the little park there near St. Ignace. I have taken shots from there also.

A "colder" view than I'm used to seeing. Like the pan.
