4 - Wheeling Suspension Bridge

Nice capture of a bleak and dreary day. You've conveyed the mood very well.

The composition is very good but something is just very slightly off for me. I've had it up on my screen now for nearly a half hour as I write this and try to figure out what it is that I̢۪m missing.

My eye is fist drawn very nicely down the leading line to the far end of the bridge. Then it returns along the line of the bridge but it stalls looking for more at the top of the frame. It eventually comes down the abutment but stalls again in the darkness of the foreground. I think I would've liked to see the entire frame brought up slightly. Not much, only enough to direct the center line of the bridge to the corner of the frame. This would reduce the amount of darkness in the foreground, expose some more of the superstructure of the bridge and bring the far side of the river a bit more off the centerline of the frame.

This critique is nit-picking at most. The shot is quite nice as is!

BTWâ€Â¦ Thanks for starting the challenge

I think what I like most is this seems very natural and not forced at all. I think the lighting could have bee a bit softer but otherwise this is quite good.

Beautiful capture. Awesome soft light and excellent sharpness. I find the dark area along the bottom to be a bit distracting (but only a bit) very nice shot overall.
