Thanks for the comments everyone! What I liked about it was that the bridge was solid and clean, even though it was rust-covered. As Dusty mentioned, that was (probably; I didn't notice a company name on it) the intent of the designers. The idea for the the DOF and adjustments to the view angle are spot on; I really, really appreciate these suggestions to help make me a better photographer.
Thanks again
Stuart

| scrolling down to comment isee that you might have chosen an angle just inside the right side of the bridge and shot at that angle. you would have still gotten the green on the left which is a nice color contrast and have had more emphasis on the lines of the bridtge and thus, the rust and lost the uninteresting area to the riight in this image. Nice find, focus, exposure. |

| There's a lot of interest in this shot, but I feel like the dramatic lines of the bridge are lost in the background. With a more open aperture that slightly blurred the background I think the subject would be more highlighted. If it were possible to get a lower and more to the right point of view, the sweeping curves of the bridge side might be more emphasized as well. I like the desing elements overall - you've got an eye for a good image! |

The spring leaves work very well in bringing life to the dull brown of rust my eye is led to the far supporting arch, but the rest of the picture seems out of harmony with the line of that arch. A more traditional look down the bridge might serve this subject better than the one chosen.

| I recently saw a TV program on the company that makes these bridges. They make them with the express intent that they rust. Great Photo! |
