I like the overall tones of this picture. It is a little soft though especially in the branches. A difficult exposure with the snow and the dark pier in the middle of the river. You did a pretty good job of figuring out the right balance though. Nice shot.
Really good focus on the subject bridge. Railing seems too new for sepia, though the rock piling seems to fit it. I have to ask: why such a (I am assuming) small portion of the bridge? 6 Swash
I really like the composition of this photo. On one hand you have the tree running down the vertical middle, and on the other you have the bridge support on the left vertical third then relative emptiness on the right third. The bridge deck rests just about on the top horizontal third and the pillar enters the water on the bottom third. The openness/emptiness on the right side just plain works for me. Good job!
Personally, would like to see much more of this bridge, it seems so lovely, it's too bad you didn't use a wider angle on your lens. The stone formation on the pier sure looks nice, but you don't give the looker much else to comment on. . .
Very well done. Most folks have gone for some really boring shots along bridges this week. This detail is very refreshing, and well composed. The snow id a bit hot, maybe it will be better when its melted.
