I didn't vote on this one, but if I had, it would've been a 9. I really like the contrasting blue and gold tones, as well as the look from the 30s exposure. congrats on a beautiful image.

Oh, WOW. Great scene. I need to find from where this shot is taken. I am realtively new to East Bay, and need to find this location. Good Luck.

Great low-light exposure. The reflections in the water are almost too bright.
Post actions
alot of time I do not like shots...but yours is the exception...it has texture, smoothness and detail excellent

Oh my, what beautiful coloring. I'd love to hang this stunning piece of art in my living room (and I'm picky, very picky what goes there)! 10

Over exposed on the water... Too much reflection of lights there. Rest of composition is good.

One of the best landscapes in this challenge. Gorgeous composition and exposure - 9

Nice but I feel I'm looking at two distinct images, the piles in the water seem to have a totally different "feel" to the bridge

like the lit up bridge water looks a little over smoothed
Post actions
Awesome capture and presentation. Gorgeous. Lovely setting where I'd love to spend some time.

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... this was one of the few images I scored a 10. One of my criteria for scoring a 10 is "Would I have this photo on my wall?" and for this one, I surely would.

Real nice lighting. The 'stars' on the bridge make it a little more special than your standard bridge image.

Gorgeous capture. The long exposure makes the water look magical. The lights' shine patterns are beautiful. Great job.
Post actions
really like the soft shiney water tones and the crisp bridge. Starbursts of the lights are excellent
Post actions
Beautifully done. the pier remnants add interest to the forground and are a leading line to the bridge which makes this picture different than the usual bridge picture.

This smoothness of color and light could only be joe's. . I found Joe's so I guess I was wrong. Great shot and good luck!

Wow... like a dream. I like the processing.

Stunning reflections and sharpness. Well Done!

Just like a postcard, only it's probably better because of the foreground detail

This is beautiful, especially the reflections. 10

I like the iced over look of the water. Muted tones work well with the title.

This is lovely. nice long exposure here, 8

The light is so wonderful.

You've made this bridge look like a jeweled necklace, but the water is a little overprocessed for me. Lovely tones, shapes and lines.
Post actions
i don't know if it's overworked or not, but whatever, it works!
Post actions
Oh wow, I love the colors and the lighting on the water!
Post actions
lovely silky water, nice night shot
Post actions
I really like this. Good colors and love the smoothness of the water and the starry lights. Nice.

Wow awesome shot, the glow is prefect.
Post actions
Beautiful reflections. The old docks in the foreground add a lot.
Post actions
Oh my... this belongs on a poster somewhere. Absolutely breathtaking!
Post actions
Absolutely captivating view of this majestic work of man! Love the play of colors on the surface of the water - tis almost like glass. The lighting is stunning with lots of beautiful detail on the bridge. Sometimes night scenes with lights on the bridges have the lights little more than blobs of light but there is such wonderful detail here and some absolutely stunning star patterns of light that adorn the bridge in beauty. The pillons in the foreground add some additional visual interest for they are like another pathway that runs on the lower right diagonal while the bridge has the leading lines pathway that runs across the center half of the image. A beautiful and lovely nighttime scene.
Post actions
Wow great long exposure effect
Post actions
Sweeett! just beautiful water and really great exposure. nice stars across the bridge and well composed with the pilons in the foreground. good luck for doing well in this highly competitive challenge! 10
Post actions
The long exposure creates such a lovely flattening effect on the water and gives the surface such a marvellous sheen. The reflected light colours are beautiful. I love the foreground old wooden supports and the way they contrast with the impressive bridge behind. Great composition. All good!
Post actions
Very nice night time exposure. Golden Gate Bridge? Excellent exposure and detail. I don't know if I can keep commenting this much for 1130 pictures, but at least the first ones will get long comments.
