Nice composition. Have you tried playing around with the levels? You might be able to put some more contrast and color into the shot. As it is, the colors are pretty muted.

For starters, it's the Richmond San RAFAEL Bridge. But regardless of the unispired title, there's no drama,or tension. with tepid composition. No demonstration of the theme other than it's a bridge. This is a challenge - so make it one! Explore the possibilites - exploit perspective, angles, lighting, natural drama, something. This is soooo bland.

This is a very nice panoramic. However, the beauty and design of the bridge is lost in the distance. It would be nicer to see the detail of the angles and intersections of the metalwork of the bridge. Not as much for improving the photo per se, but rather for enhancing the relation to the theme. Aside from that, I really like the way the bridge's 'mountains' play into nature's mountains in the background and that certainly makes up for the lack of detail of the bridge. Overall, very artistic and well done.

a tighter crop might have made image more dramatic

this is a nice shot but i think it would have been better to get more of the details of the bridge into it...bridges like this make great panoramic shots...unfortunately we can't use them here

I've been across this bridge-along with 5000 other cars!! lol Traffic was terrible, but the view, the city is just fantastic. Love the whole area and hope to visit again soon. I love how you've captured so much of the bridge. Excellent.

I'd close up more the details of the bridge... It must be a really great design.
