Excellent shot; I love the lines of the bridge. The light on the structure to the left of the bridge is a bit distracting, but not too much. I might also have tried to move down past the tree (which breaks the start of the bridge's lines), but that might not have worked at all!

The colour of the sky is beautiful, the angle you have shot the bridge at draws your eye into the photo. Fab.

Good composition, and I like that the stars are showing.

I like the strong lines leading to the stars in the sky. and the still moving water is a nice touch.

I like the way the three tall trusses recede into the background. It makes the bridge look very long. Good sky and foreground as well.

Great angle. Love the colors in the sky and bridge and just the hint of stars.

I love the angle where the low portion of the bridge leads you right into the photo. The sky color and the sparkle are really well done.

Very nice! I like the overall effect of this image. All of the elements come together just right, and the colors are great. I really like the way you were able to get the stars in the background despite the rather strong light on top of the dam.

I think this is a successful landscape. I get a nice impression of the size and scope of the bridge, thanks to the foreground elements. I think you found just the right balance of foreground to background. Also, this looks like a night shot with a long exposure. That creates an interesting sky color and also brings out nice colors in the bridge (and in general I like the blues greens and reds here). It looks like there's some kind of dam(?) next to the bridge. This creates another perspective line that I think adds interest to the shot, though some will probably tell you it distracts from the bridge. I myself am not that easily distracted. In fact, I look for extra elements. As long as they interact in an interesting way, extra elements generally make a picture more rich.

If I had asked you for a picture of the bridge, for example, I would be very happy with this shot. As you might be able to tell, though, I'm not "wowed" by the shot, but I do think it's well done.
