This is my fourth challenge. I had a much better picture of the same bridge and same angle, but on a different night. Unfortunately that night I had dust on my sensor and it came out in the sky...
This is the bridge to Robert Moses park on Long Island NY. Not sure of the name of the bridge, but it's part of the Robert Moses Causeway (RMC).
I played with it some in Adobe Photoshop 2.0:
- Crop
- Sharpen slightly
- Adjust levels
- Adjust contrast
- Adjust Saturation/Hue

I really like the way that the sky changes from light to dark across the frame. When I look at this, I first see the bright portion of sky, then follow the bridge to the dark portion with the brightly-lit tower.
Very cool picture, I probably would've taken a little bit more off of the bottom. Very good exposure, the slower shutter speed made those lights very starlike. Good job.
