This railcrossing is wonderfully hidden in plain sight directly across from the local automall and right off the freeway. I only noticed it while walking home from dropping off my car for service.
Most likely, this trussle will be torn down within the next 4 years. The city plans extend the commuter train into town and will most likely need to rebuild this.

Good title for what you are trying to do in this photograph. The busy-ness of the image works, but it is also busy simply because it is confusing and slightly out of focus.
really falling apart from the looks of things, isn't it? you've done a nice job of capturing it all on your film. Great shadows, good colors, good cropping, sharpness is there. nicely done.
Neat scene, but ouch on the glare/bridge railing. Nothing really grabs me, lots of slightly interesting stuff, but together it just looks messy. 5 Swash
This bridge looks like it's seen better days, but the personality of it really shines through! I can't help but like it - it looks like it has tons of stories to tell!
I think that thel ighting to thisp icture dosent help out the picture. There is to much light comming in from the back. It was a good image though nice work.
Needs softer light, take the photo early in the morning or late in the afternoon. The softer light at those times of day can avoid highlight blowouts like in the upper right and provides more contrast. The chromatic abberation/purplefringing & clipping effect would be a lot less as well.
I think there is a story here the bridge could tell with a bit better angle and more time spent making it happen. As is, I am not sure what the subject is. -Clicker-
