So, we are having a battle of the bridges. Bring it on!
Nice shot. I like the angle you selected. The lighting is much better than what Tom and I had when we photographed the much superior railroad bridge!
At first, I did not like the wire and the birds in the photo, but then I thought, they add a nice "every day" touch to the image.
Good job.
Thanks Patrick!
Initially I was like you. I think we are trained as photographers to automatically clone out all wires but here it I think the wire (and the birds and the birds on the wire) makes the photo. Without the wire it is just another bridge photo! :-)
Cheers!
