This was taken shortly after sunset to get the twilight blue sky. It's a 6 second exposure. I wasn't sure the shot would be sharp as the bridge is over a wier and the whole thing was vibrating slightly. Shortly after this shot was taken the lights on the suspension tower changed to white, I'm not sure if they are on a cycle or just warmed up. Strange to think there could be a window of nice artificial lighting when shooting similar to normal sunrise/setset.
Processing was a small level adjust, resize and web sharpen. It looks more vivid on camera than it does in real life and needed no artificial boost.
This shot was taken for my Photo-A-Day project, so I'll have to put a holding image up on the blog site now...

I really love the colors in this photo. Composition is OK, but I think you could have twisted yourself and got a more interesting perspective, which would lend more towards the subject of this challenge. But overall, great shot.
The photo seems to be taken a bit off center of the bridge. The fence cutoff from the left is lower than the right which takes away from the symmetry I think you were trying to display. Otherwise a solid photo. 7
I love the color and lighting of this photo, but when I scrolled down I was a little distracted by the railings not being symmetrical. I know that may sound picky, but it didn't seem to be off-centered enough to paly on the rule of thirds. Overall, though, I really liked it.
