I can see where this landmark would the be subject for this challenge. For me, though, I think it would be worth the time invested to crop and clone this a little differently. The heavy shadow in the foreground is both distracting and sad because the grass does help to provide a context for the structures. I think that if you could get the shot without the shadow then I'd leave the grass but in this version I think I'd crop the photo so that this shadow was not visible. Also, the powerlines running parallel to the ground and from the bottom of the bridge up to the top edges are distracting against the lovely, noiseless sky. IMO this photo is a candidate for the Advanced Editing rules in that removing these powerlines wouldn't take away from the integrity but would keep a very small element from being distracting all the way across the photo. Finally there is a sign at the bottom of the bridge and that sign is bright white, probably from reflected sunlight. I think that could be darkened a little to keep it from distracting the viewer as their view travels up, down and across the bridge. I like the subject and the angle provides the viewer with a path to follow visually. You've managed to capture something that looks active (what with all the girders and beams) against a smoothly graded, calm background. |
