Thanks for all the comments. I agree about the distractions in the lower right and left. Cropping them out just looked worse to me and being a basic challenge I had to leave them in. As for over shapening I seem to be having a problem with that on images with quite a bit of detail. As I did not add any sharpening to this photo throughout the process I think it might be in my rezizing. Still working on it. Overall I'm pretty happy with this score.
Nicely composed but the tree line to sky transition makes it rather obvious the work you've had to do here I'm afraid. I find it rather distracting from what should be the main subject...
composition is funky - love the duotone but would use levels to bring out the whites in the coulds a bit more, would like to see this from another angle..very interesting bridge 6
I like the shot, interesting bridge and background. My only complaint is with the sepia/duotone. I think it's a little too much saturation or too light..not quite sure. I do like this direction, though.
That really looks like a vintage pic, congrats. Just one thing... IMO it might have been crop a bit to remove the 2 distracting angular spots at the bottom left and right.
