Greetings from the Critique Club :)
I think this is a nice scene for a photograph. The bridge definitely adds a very nice element to the photo. I think architecture integrates nicely with certain landscapes :)
There are a couple places where this photo could use come improvement overall. 1 - The top of the bridge would be nicer if it was lined up parallel with the top of the frame. It is slightly sloping to one side. The 'horizon line' in any landscape should be horizontal in the frame unless you have chosen an extreme angle for effect. 2 - The colors are a bit 'flat'. I think that a little saturation adjustment in software would fix this right up for sure!
This photo could also possibly use a little extra sharpness maybe... I bet that if you used software to increase the color saturation just a little and increase the overall sharpness, you would have a much more powerful photo :)
Keep up the great work :) This is an excellent first submission. I look forward to seeing more of your work in the future :)

This is an awesome photo, so relazing and restful to look at. It's beautiful. I love the colors in the bridge. What kind of boats are these? This invites you to take a leisure coast down the river or canal, whichever. I might have added a little more sky, but it's a 10 just as it is. Congratulations on a beautiful photo. |

More architecture than landscape IMO. Interesting boats. - Inspzil |

Nice compositon. I wish the bridge wans't leaning right though. |

A good local image that captures the classic historical serenity of the location. I like the bridge arching over the boat strerns. Those strerns are a nice color punch to the otherwise restrained color theme. The overhanging tree and meadow bit are lovely compositional accents. I also really like the kiss of light on the background stream. Beautiful touch. The overcast day really brings out those subtle colors. A worthy image. |

Very nice. (the nearer boats seem to have water in them, did you bale them out?) Neat old bridge. I like the branches hanging on the right, too. How does one access the boats parked under the bridge? 8 Swash |

great use of angles...the limbs of the overhanging tree on the right and trees seen through the bridge ..top and bottom..balance the picture nicely. |

Very nice... Strong diagonals from the boats. The horizon of the bridge looks a little slanted, but not so much as to overly distract. |

Cropping just below the bridge railing would have yielded a much stronger, less cluttered image.... |

This almost looks like a painting to me. Very moody. |

Good job. I wonder though if it is cropped just a little too tightly on the sides - perhaps a little surrond would have put the bridge into perspective. Besides that the composition (height of bridge top, inclusion of foreground boats is very good. Perhaps you could have rotated the image slightly to make the top of the bridge horizontal, although it's not a big deal. |

Not sure if it's a landscape as such, but I like it. |
