Maybe too overfocused. It left a lot of image shadowing on the bridge and on the foreground bushes.

awesome shot there, and I've seen the bridge which shouldn't come as a surprise since we live so close :) congrats on top 10 :)

How did you get a press tour? Can anybody do it??

Superior technical quality of a fine nightime image. This image will place very high in voting. A ribbon is possible here. Clarity is phenomenal, it has great detail and the reflections in the calm water are spetacular.

Only two small items. You might chose to crop just a "smidgen" off the bottom of the frame compositionally. There is some haloing along the treeline of the near horizon that you should get rid of for printing.

Kudos to you for a great capture.
