Visually appealing, despite the fact that the bridge isn't very attractive. Great water.

Nicely done. Using a longer exposure time to capture te flowing motion of the water puts this a cut above most of the others.

Nice effect with the water! Good composition. I wish the bridge highlights had more punch - Sharping may have helped. Still, one of the best so far.

I like the appearance of rushing water - is it Deception Falls becuase the water fall itself is a bit hidden? I like the detail shown here, and the contrast that makes the bridge stand out against a fairly dark background.

Nice-- A slow shutter to capture nice movement-- Very original Bridge Shot

Fantastic shot! Really like the use of the water (motion). Composition is excellent. Nice colour and light contrasts. Well done!

I like the way the water was captured.

You've done a great job of capturing the water rushing down below the foot-bridge. The colour of the bridge is great as is the colour of the various rocks in the water.

I think this would do very well in black and white also. Did you try it?

The water is much nicer than the bridge!! Would have been a great pic for a motion challenge.

nice clean and visually interesting composition

That's a powerful leading line trough this photo. I like it how it seems to cut the scene in half, the stream beneath it, the forest behind it. The color of it fits the image and the way the lines of the bridge itself work is cool.
Motion of the water adds dynamics. Good job.

I love the structure of this bridge, and the long exposure on the water is a nice inclusion - but thankfully doesn't steal the focal point away from the bridge. Great work.

Good idea. Need an anchor - feels like the bridge is floating.

This image works in many ways. the slow shutter speed almost makes the crispness of the bridge look super imposed in the photo.

Very nice shot! I really like that you used a slower shutter speed here to give a feel of motion to the water below. Nice perspective in this shot. Very interesting lines. Great work! Good luck with the challenge!

Wow, great shot and a GORGEOUS area! I can't help but focus more on the water than the bridge, but this is really amazing.

I like this bridge, very earthy and naturelike with a touch of modernism. Good choice of framing.
