Great detail in the shot! I love the proportions of the tiny people in the photo compared to the structures!

Whoa! Is that a person climbing up the girders mid photo at the top? Maybe a DPC'er taking shots of you taking shots. LOL. I like the lines here. Good job.

Absolutely gorgeous! For one, I have never seen the SOH taken from this angle before, and it begs the question, why? It looks superb side on. The pink sky is very lovely, and the lighting on the bridge is perfect. in fact, lighting as a whole is totally without fault. very smooth and lovely poster-friendly image - 10.
