Greetings from the Critique Club };-)
Initial thoughts
Beautiful bridge, meets the challenge, a little too much water in foreground.
Composition/ Content
I really like this bridge a lot. That being said, I wish I could see it a little better. There is a bit too much water and not enough bridge. I don't know for sure if you have enough lens or there is a place to get close enough to it but a closer shot would be great. If not possible then you need to crop about half of the foreground water and make more of a panorama shot.
Technical
Focus seems good but the contrast seems like it could be turned up just a bit to make the bridge stand out against the sky more. A blue sky would be great but it is awfully hard to control the weather!
My Opinion On The Photo
I originally scored this shot a six which was a touch higher than most of the voters. I think that it meets the challenge well but could have been improved a little to finish even higher than it did. Good job, and keep up the good work.
I would be happy to talk further about this shot if you would like to contact me.

| Interesting bridge I would have cropped out some of the water and enlarged the view of the bridge. |

| Good shot and subject. I wish you could have had more punch in the bridge - it just lays there and the water sparkles. |

| This would look really cool as a panorama shot without so much water in the forground, The water is a little bit distracting and takes away from the subject of the bridge. |

| Really nice photo on such an overcast day and rough waters. You've done a good job of catching the storminess of the clouds/weather. |

| Quite an unusual looking bridge, I wish you could have gotten a little closer to show more detail |

| The matching of the wavelike structure of the bridge, with the waves in the water is brilliant. The bridge is obviously the main focus here (unlike many cityscape shots for this challenge), and the division according to the rule of the thirds is good. For a suggestion, I might like to see this shot outside of the monochrome. |

| It's an interesting bridge but the photo is too dark to look at. |

| Nice dramatic lighting, good freezing of the waves. The road to IJburg, the killing of Durgerdam's view on the Zuiderzee. :( |

| Very unusual. The waves are swaying with the bridge. What about if it were a little lighter, I think it would have been excellent with more light. |
