The water is certainly a lot calmer, its most beautiful with the leaves on the trees too. Great shot, I loved this bridge too.

I would love to see this same composition done on a blue sky day with autumn leaves on the trees. I think this was perfect for the challenge.

Shots like these are why I miss NE Ohio. Beautifully done!

I missed this in the challenge... this is a wonderful shot. I bet it would be cool as a duotone. Congrats on your "star" shot top 10 finish

I'd like to see a version of this available as a print... this is a really great shot, especially with the reflection in the water below.

Wow!! The bridge line as the outer border and the reflection create a frame and an overall really good image. Well done! I am really impressed, nice work.

I think this picture is very lovely!!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Lovely! I would have been very tempted to bump the saturation and bring out the blues in the sky and the greens/yellows in the foliage. This could have really been a WOW image, but very nice as is.

The reflection of the bridge forms a lovely oval effect, using the bridge as the top and bottom of the image is very nice...7

Great entry for this challenge. The symmetry works really nicely in this photo. I would maybe like to see a bit more saturation. Very serene and beautiful.

Vey unique and a great photo! I love the angle of the shot and the growth at the base - how one shows and the other doesn't. Very nice work!

very nice capture!

Very unusual take on a bridge photo. Well seen. Nice work

Now we're talking! Beautiful job of meeting the challenge. I especially like the way the light is on the underside of the bridge's left side and how that works so well in the reflection. Imagining it with blue sky! :-)

Very good. This is one of the better entries. Good luck
 06/06/2005 09:58:25 PM
Your thinking is grand..but unlevel and this would have made a great black and white, lots of contrasting colors. stilll give you a 8.

great find. interesting crop too.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/06/2005 04:59:22 PM
the concept is interesting, to say the least, but I would've put some negative space above the bridge and below the reflection... though there were probably cars crossing it preventing you from doing such while maintaining the same effect.

 06/06/2005 03:58:15 PM
The effect of the reflection is really stunning. Beautiful.
 06/06/2005 12:36:46 PM
