Roz, got another comment about not using the tripod as well, but that bridge was pretty rickety and uneven and he was just taking a quick shot so it wasn't worth it. Thanks for the nice comment.

bummer about the score .. love the photograph .. !!
wot i really like is that he's got the tripod but he's using the railing instead .. !! .
he probably has a manfrotto .. i dont .. the one i have is a pain .. too many knobs and screws and wind up things you have to muck around with ... the ball & socket head is definitely the way to go .. well i think that's how the manfrotto work .. :)
Whoever it is, why are they balancing on a rail when there's a tripod right next to them?! Nice shot but I think the selective saturation doesn't have as much impact as a b&w version might.
