Critique Club critique by Tim Jensen.
This is a very interesting bridge and I love the way the snow is piled up on the sides of the columns. I am not completely in favor of the composition, however. It's not bad but I think you could have chosen a better angle that eliminated the branches and was more dramatic. I'm not sure exactly what that angle should be but maybe one that highlighted one of the piles of snow and an arch by showing it closer to the camera. Basically looking down the side of the bridges some more. Since I can't see the entire scene I can't know if there were some elements that you didn't want to show in the scene. The repetition of the arches and piles of snow are very interesting and I would like to see them pronounced even more in some way. The same goes for the nice texture of the bridge. I just want to get closer to all of that.
The colors and values are very good and natural looking. I really like the smoothness and brightness of the snow and the way that it helps lead you into the photo. Within the second arch from the right there are trees that are interfering from clearing showing the arche's shape on the backside. The arches are an important visual element and care should be taken so that they are not blocked or interfered with.
The photo is appropriately sharp and executed very well. Overall this is a pleasing photo of a very intersting bridge and surrounding elements. Good job

| lovely picture to be taken in the winter with all the snow and ice freezing over the water. It must look just beautiful here in the summer time. You've got a beautul blue sky up there too. |

| Stark coloring gives this the look of a 40s or 50s postcard -- excellent! The tree branches distract somewhat, but overall a strong image. |
