Photo of the Staten Island side of the bridge. I did not want to
take the common "Full Bridge" shot, since there are way too many of
those out there, so I went with more of a diagonal approach.
Despite some comments, all the colors in this photo are natural.
The only thing I did was increase the contrast in the whole picture.
Photo was taken just after sunset, when colors were just settling down.

Hey Vince, you made 17th place, congratulations, you did very well. Your photo has alot of potential, I believe it should of scored higher than it did but still, good work. I seen your outakes too, Outake2 is awesome, I first noticed it on your web site. Well, good going Vince, take care.
This is really eerie & strange. I gave it an 8. The colors are a little muddy and the sharpness is a little soft for the subject, or I'd have it at 9. Strong entry.
Amazing how a shot like this makes the ordinary hub-bub of urban life so serene and even spiritual. Congratulations on capturing this through your use (or God's) of color, form, and cropping.
The lights on the bridge are great. I realize this is a basic challenge, so it would probably have been tough to make the lights so green and the water a little less saturated, but I do think the water came out too saturated. It works beautifully on the sky and bridge lights, though.
The colors are absolutely beautiful. Nice and sharp. I think this photo would of looked nicer if you would have gotten the whole bridge instead, but It's still one of my favorites. I gave you a big 10!
