A covered bridge built in 1870 located on McCafferty Rd over E. Fork Little Miami River, Brown County, Ohio.
Bikers enjoying a wonderfully mild winter day in Ohio.
I've switched photos about 5 times at least.
edit: Noticed my file size is a little small. Didn't utilize the full 150. I submitted so many versions I lost track of what I even submitted.
Hindsight...if you have that much trouble submitting, it's probably not worth it. (I still like it even though I barely got a 5.)
I appreciate the comments and the 10 vote! Thanks.

First thing that strikes me is the biker...in my opinion I really don't think it's helping the shot any. Part of it might be the position of the motorcycle and part of it might be that I feel like it would be better off without him all together...the bridge just has that nice peaceful feel to it and it's like the motorcycle disturbs it. Composition-wise, I think that the bridge could have been emphasize more if taken from a different angle, either being able to see more inside of it or from further out to the side...the way it is now it's like the side of the bridge that we can see just blends into the sky, and there isn't much detail on the inside, either. I do like the way the tree branches seem to frame it, and the color tint you chose complements it very well.
I'd have say I like your first outtake better; it incorporates the biker into the shot more and while you can't see the outer shape of the bridge as much, I like the tunnel feeling it has.
Nice image, I think the fact that the shadow / darkness in the tunnel isn't completely black. The image looks a little faded but it doesn't take away from the image too much. I also like the lines from the trees and the tunnel.
