 Today I took images from my four favorite spots overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge and this was, after great deliberation, the one I decided to enter. Pretty much basic editing. This subject doesn't need much to set it off.

Maybe it is my monotor but I am seeing a bit of a focus problem. Great angle on the bridge though.

The blur in the verticle suspension cables is a bit distracting. Aside from that, very nice use of colors and a spectacular perspective of Golden Gate.

Nice viewpoint and I like the way you have kept the vertical vertical and made such a striking diagonal from the horizontal. My main suggestion would be to shift to the left a little - crop a little from the right and include a touch more on the left so that the diagonal flies right over to the top left corner.

Nice shot of the bridge, but it has been done so many times, so not getting too many points for originality. You picked a good time of day to take the shot though.

Hey! You "stole" my idea! Just kidding (see my previous GG bridge shots). This is a great perspective on it. I thought that a shot of the underneath part would be cool... You can get to it from the North end of the bridge on the walkway that goes under the bridge. On this one, I'd have given it a little boost in brightness using Levels. The color otherwise is very good.

You have produced a nice angle on one of the World̢۪s most photographed subjects. I feel that cloning out the objects in the skyline under the bridge between the towers, would have made a more pleasing and perhaps a higher scoring photo.

Great colors. I like how the bridge draws the viewer into the scene.

A little too saturated, and shadows possibly could be lightened, but a good picture.

Nice shot. Mid-tones should be brighter. The sun's still up, but you've let it look like dusk. (We might have rubbed elbows today! March 7, late afternoon)
