Cool looking bridge that connects Covington, KY and Cincinnati, OH. This was taken at 3:30 in the morning and all I did to get the blue sky is adjust levels and curves. After that, just resize, unsharp mask and save for web.

I have yet to get a REALLY good shot of our bridge. If I get one as good as this, I'll definitely be satisfied. I love the clarity and the colors. The star effects add interest as well. The composition feels just a bit cramped at the top of the bridge to me, but nothing major.
Someone gave you a 1? Sheesh... senseless trolls. This is fabulous... no noise at all, fabulous lighting, and I love the starry twinkles. :) Wonderful image, and congrats on your finish!
This is a killer shot and should have ribboned in my opinion. The composition seems clean and uncluttered and it's a good sharp shot. Hopefuly a sign of things to come. Well done.
This is Cincinnati, yes? Anyway, beautiful shot. I love the lighting on the first arch. My one criticsm is that I wish the sky were a bit darker to make it feel more like night.
Pretty cool stuff, love the coloring in this shot and also the composition. Kindof a shame this is basic editing as the blown out top columns on the bridge kindof draw too much attention for my taste and that could easily have been corrected in advanced editing so I am going to assume you would have done so if you had the chance and vote as I see the image should look. That means an 8 from me, I really like this shot.
I find the right half extremely interesting with the warm colors contrasting the cold cables, but the left half falls apart for me becoming too busy and blown out.
