This is one of the many abandoned bridges crossing the mighty James River in Richmond, Virginia. I thought it looked super cool.

This is so cool! I hope you do really well with this. The colors and tones are very striking, and the mixutre of simplicity with complexity is very moving.
Great composition, lighting and clarity. Love how you can see the newer, bigger bridge through the mangled trees! Well done! I gave it a 9. I would have given it a 10 if the sky was a hue of blue. :)
I love the story this shot tells. It's such a nice contrast with the big modern bridge next to this skeleton. The brush growing around the old bridge (railroad bridge?) really drive home the subject.
