I took some shots of this bridge a couple of years ago on my old camera. With my new camera in hand, and the Night Shot challenge, I set out to recreate some of my old shots of this bridge. This is a different angle than I got last time, looking up the support wires.
The shot is pretty busy, but I think the composition is reasonably balanced. There's lots of horrible lens flare, but it's basic editing, so I'm stuck with all the nitty gritty. It's the last night, and I really want to put in more effort to enter some challenges, so here it is! I think the result works overall, and with luck, I'll get a slightly better score than last years entries.
Editing is pretty straightforward - straighten, levels, convert to sepia, NR, minor sharping.
Here's hoping for 5.5
(Here's a bit of trivia - people actually live in this bridge! There's two apartments in each end of the bridge. I think that's so cool.)
Postchallenge re-edit here...
