		| | Critique Club Comment : Sorry this is so late. It's been a rough week.
 
 Composition : I've always loved strong lines and this has them.  Simple and well composed.
 
 Exposure : The side of the arch that is in the light is a little over exposed, but not horribly so.
 
 Focus / DoF : It seems a little on the soft side, but that might be due more to resolution then to the focus.
 
 Post Processing : This shot suffers from a lot of grain and noise.  Since you were shooting fairly fast and with 100 ISO, I have to assume it was caused by resizing (I could be wrong).  There are some very impressive software packages that remove a lot of the noise and grain from shots.  Perhaps this image would benefit from one of them.
 
 Challenge / Interest : Challenge is certainly met.  This structure is one of the most easily recognized landmarks in the US.
 
 My opinion : I like the simplicity of this shot. Strong lines.  But the grain and noise really hurt this shot badly.  Very nice entry.

		| | This picture seems a little grainy to me.  Great shot of the arch though. |
