My 1st entry. Editing: Crop, Levels, Curves, Colour Balance and Channel Mixer. (I'm pretty sure they're all leagle, my humblest appologies if I'm wrong.) and Unsharp Mask.
I cross this bridge 4 to 6 times a night for my job. It is the Ambassador Bridge linking Windsor ON, Canada and Detroit, MI, USA. I love it, and hate it more and more every day.

There just has to be a good tutorial on how to get lights like these to turn out better. I surely don't know how, but someone must - it would help with this photo and about 9000 of mine!
I think I would have rated this one higher, if the focal point was put beyond the end of the deck. I think that would have pulled the focus of the bridge in just a hair to make it really neat. Of course then I might be asking you what the sign said... :)
Nice exposure. I don't know what the sign adds to this picture; to me it's a distraction but maybe you wanted it there so I won't come down on that too hard. And personally I'd like the whole picture moved up a bit, with less on the bottom and more on the top. But this is all nit-picky, overall this is a very nice shot.
The foreground content makes this photo interesting, I like the depth created by it. The sign "swimming prohibited" makes no sense in these conditions and therefore adds some fun.
