Quite majestic with leading lines of authority. Bumping up.

nice composition. i think your border hi-lites your most unfortunate area...that blow out in the upper right. i think a darker border would have strengthened the pic. I also think a horizontal flip would have also strengthened the leading line...but that's just a Western thing.

This shot has a very classic feel to it. Nice simple tonality! What bride is this? Golden Gate? If so it's unusual to see it done in B/W.

Nice and clear. Well composed, although perhaps I'd prefer to see a little more contrast in the sky.

Bridges always make the most beautiful lines. I love this one. Very well done.

Where is this? :) a touch of déja vu coming on I do believe.
It is crisp, has a nice look but does not lead me into the pic very easily, I think I do not like starting from upper right. Sorry

The lines lead to nothing in particular..the lines/bridge itself is the subject..
