Now that I see who entered this, I am guessing my American spelling of "Medusa" is not the only way it is spelled around the world.

I just looked it up and your spelling IS a correct one, though I had never seen it that way before. My apologies regarding the earlier comment.

A good thing I don't ding points for spelling. Otherwise, I love this!

My first impression was that this was a bit too bold in the lavender saturation- but, after staring a while, the whites fill in the gaps, and the leaves float like geometric marvels, like spaceships of an otherworldly color above a pristine ivory atmosphere...

Thanks for picking my image. Do you live in Italy? I am going to Venice again in October and November and hope they will finish renovations!

What I like about this image is its purity. By purity, I mean lack of or minimal processing. There are plenty of textures to explore and the colors are real-world muted. The subject bridge dominates over the other structure and is a perfect element in the frame for the eye to rest upon. Not that it really matters, but I was your second ten.

Truly a lovely image.

Nice attempt. Lacks some of the clarity of the original. No points deducted for the work in progress. ;)

Enjoy the silence

Would have preferred a tighter crop or closed shot to give me both bridges.

Shame you couldn't have shot while there was something more than dark in the sky, and gotten her fuzzy brooding look in editing, because this is a great idea for a varioation. Love the boxed building.
