I know where this is and you should have your hands on the wheel instead of taking pictures :-)) Might work better over the the left to get the support in the middle.

I like your image, but I'm not sure it's busy enough for me. The lines of the bridge -- which indeed make the photo beautiful -- are very linear, and to me don't add busyness.

Nice.

Bridge doesn't look very busy. And the framing is off. You could have done a lot more w/ the geometry. This just seems like a snapshot.
