South with the Old, North with the New

the find and processing are both great. the composition is passable but could be even better, and by that, it might have been able to fix that with a crop, paying attention to the edges of the photo, or perhaps a subtle vignette. That might play nicely off the symmetry, or interesting lack there of in the center.

Greetings from the Critique Club.

Your image definitely meets the challenge (except for the part about naming your challenge, but I certainly don't think that's significant since the intended 'flaw' was quite clear.) And I loved the ghosting. I think it added a lot to this image, it made me think of Niagara Falls with all of the visible splash and humidity in the air. And technically, quite a complicated image. I like how you used multiple exposures to accentuate the lighting in the scene.

I didn't fine myself loving the image as a whole though with all the darkness mid-photo. I can picture this scene with my mind's eye and I bet it was spectacular, but all the darkness detracted a little from being able to enjoy the full scene in this image.

But an above average score and a nice finish. Well done.

Shoot on!

Weird bit of warped distortion here in the stitching and not the kind I think you want in a stitch like this, even in a "distorted" challenge. Otherwise nicely processed.

loving the lens flare... to me it accentuates the beauty of the place. 7

That's some serious flare - almost a light leak sorta thing.

Whilst I like the colours of the 'flawed' light, from my point of view, it doesn't enhance the scene.

Great sky color and the bridge makes for a nice leading line into the image. The bridge is well positioned in the frame, nicely done on shooting and processing.
