This is both a self portrait and a bridge photo...I framed up the shot...set the ten second delay...and ran to the bench.
There are actually three bridges in the picture...the one I'm on (Walnut Street), the drawbridge in front of me (Market Street), and a highway (TN-27) in the distance.

Great composition. I like the DOF, you have sharp elements very close to the camera and far away. The reddish tone is great, I think with this picture it works better than sepia. 10.
my only 10. excellent capture and coloring. love the way the lights are curved, love how the pole seperates the image, nice sky also. good all around. (10)
absolutely gorgeous composition. It's the rule of thirds kicked into high gear. Beautiful tones as well, and the person (you?) is a nice touch to detail.
I really like the juxtaposition of the straight lines with the loops at the tops of the lamp columns. Even the pole close to the camera adds interest, rather than spoiling the effect, as it easily could.
