I wonder at your choice of point of view - why this position, with tthe bridge plonked dead centre frame and partially obscured by a couple of trees? There is I suppose some sense of location, of the environment of the bridge - but those contrasting shapes, and the contrary directions in which they send the attention do not help you at all, as far as I can see. Look: the nagle of the trees pulls your gaze toward the bottom right of frame, where there is nothing of particular note. The lines of the bridge, the walls, the curve of the stream also pull the eye to the right of frame, where it finds those trees. The strongest area of frame in this image is that bottom right area ... sure the red of the bridge is unmissable - but try, genuinely try to look at this like you've never seen it before, and let your gaze wander where it wants to through the image, and be aware of where it goes. |
