 WOW....I feel honored to be sitting between two of my favorite photographers on this site. Congrats to Christophe and Allen on their ribbons.

When I have an idea for a challenge, I usually don't see it exactly how I want it until I am actually shooting the image. However, for this challenge I knew exactly what I wanted to shoot, where I wanted to shoot it, and how I wanted to process it. The photograph turned out exactly how I had imagined.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments during the challenge and the great score.

I keep on thinking I have seen this image before.. I found the umbrella in your portfolio but cannot find the bridge. I would swear I have seen this bridge with these colors. Where was it taken? Congrats on the ribbon!

Great color, mood and lighting for this shot. I like the way the one side of the fence draws us to the person. Well done, a ribbon contender for sure.

Beautiful photo.

Completely seductive with a deja vu feeling (in a good sense though) - as if we saw the movie already and this is part of the trailer.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/13/2011 10:41:01 PM
Nice composition, imho for this challenge the focus should be on the fence not the umbrella.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/13/2011 01:21:51 PM
NICE.

Great shot and the use of the fence to draw your eye into the photo is perfect.

Wonderful composition and great splash of color

 05/12/2011 12:19:59 PM
I absolutely love the composition of this - and really good use of the fence to form an integral part of that composition.

by far my fav image in this challenge...wow image
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/10/2011 05:00:43 PM
Great photo, beautiful colors, subdued. The bare ground on the far side of the bridge right over the railing distracts my eye just a tad, maybe the viewpoint could have been lowered 12", but I'm nitpicking here.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/10/2011 11:44:01 AM
Nice image,would have liked a little more light here and there.

 05/09/2011 01:04:13 AM
Ohhh... I like this.

I think I'd have LOVED this for the challenge... without the umbrella. It steals the show, I think, too much from the fence. But... I'm not voting, so my opinion, is just an opinion. :)
