Doesn't meet the challenge brief. Good luck. ;)

Lovely bridge - quite striking. Water is too hot though.

Looks like a lovely spot. Your exposure seems quite good too. The only thing that I would suggest is to play with some different perspectives to get some interest in the subject - the bridge just seems a little flat and acts as a separation between the water and the trees instead of complimenting the image. The bridge would make an ideal lead in if viewed from a more acute angle.

A nice setting, but I think a spot of color would really make this image pop. A woman standing on the bridge with a brightly colored parasol maybe, a child walking across with a toy in hand... some little zing of color.

Like the softness. Made what might have otherwise been an ordinary picture into something special

Not realy mutch going on, image looks flat. It's because of the light I guess.
