That's pretty cool (pun intended). Light's a bit flat on my monitor but it's an interesting scene. Guessing 5.98

Mackinaw Bridge. Very Nice. I know the little park there near St. Ignace. I have taken shots from there also.

I like the light, but I feel you've aimed bit too high score-wise for the shot. More like a 5.8- the vignette seems a bit unnatural.

Comment by RyanW:
technical aside, the snow drifts are a bit too distracting in the scene, in my opinion
I figure a 5.68

Michigan Winter Warmth...Sunshine!

Good improvising and the warm son contrasted by the cold place does work well. You can almost imagine yourself wanting to stand in this light - but not familiar with this kind of conditions Im sure the sunshine is deceptive as even with this it can be very cold.
Comp looks good and nice lead in to image with enough interest on sides to bring eye back as well as clouds naturally bringing the eye down again.

Notes on processing I suppose is a personal thing and I cant say Im a big fan of this kind of processing where you loose allot of the natural feel of the beautiful setting. I note another comment also not liking the clouds but even lower down the whites in the water is so unnatural that you wonder if it's not some artificial plastic in it. i might have opted for a slightly warmer tone to this as it could help in the theme of the challenge.

Nice finish and many people hope to get a 6 in any challenge.
