Camera was hand held and auto settings were used. Photo slightly cropped. Accidentlly left the red-eye reduction on, flash fired twice. Taken at 7:32 am on Valentine's Day before work. I had to almost step into the water to get this shot. I got lucky and there was no litter around to spoil the shot. Hope this one does well.

Looks like the water is falling onto the bridge. I'd crop off a good chunk of the bottom, making it more square. As is, the stream distracts the eye from the bridge. Slightest saturation boost could help. Nice shot overall.
The subject is great and the composition is pretty pleasing to the eye; the photo definitely meets the challenge. However, the white balance appears to be off, and the undersaturation doesn't really work - it would be nicer either fully coloured or converted to b&w. For some reason, my eye doesn't like the space to the left of the bridge - it wants to see the bridge go to the edge of the photo. The setting is great, though, and the focus and DOF are excellent.
