Thx for the comments. It was sunrise and I was shooting directly into the sun. Placed the sun as close to the middle as possible in order to minimize flare and blooming but conditions were harsh to say the least. And yes, I was on a boat. It's the only way to pull off a shot between the 2 spans.

Great shot, perfect title. A little over exposed in the middle, but I like it.

Very nice capture. I would have liked this a lot more if it was taken at a different time of day so the sun flare wasn't there.

great job! although you have some blown out areas this is still a fantastic image, the comppsition is perfect with two leading curved lines flowing beautifully into the image and a perfect juxtaposition of the left side of the image with the right. great photo. 9

Quite a stunning photo with a lovely angle. A little bright in the centre with a bit of lens flare and also a tiny rainbow in the bottom LH corner which keeps distracting me.

Interesting angle of the sun, works for me. Did ya try a bit more contrast to darken darks more, might be ever better.

I love the contrast of old versus new. Nice perspective lends the image a nice symbolism, like old and new come together in the distance. I don't find the white in the center too distracting although it would be nice to minimize it more if possible, especially the area on the water. 9.

If the sun wasn't so burned out or in a different location, this could be really nice.

The flare is ruining the picture.

Nice composition. Although the light seems blown out, it seems that that is perhaps your intent?, and I think it works in this photo. Very good use of leading lines and a vanishing point. Good job.

Very nice position but too much flare.

The huge hot spot in the center of image hurts this image greatly....I different time of day would have been better.

This is such a great perspective without the glare I'd score it at least a 9.

The middle light is a little harsh on my eyes, but it goes nicely with the picture. Almost like I'm there and I need to squint from the light :P
