    Bridge Over the Atlantic



    I'm torn on this one, seems a bit of a divide between top and bottom. Any feedback appreciated as always.

    The huge grains of noise on the upper part of the photo don't really work for me. And, without the bridge, it seems like you have great thirds rule going on ...but the bridge makes it so its cut in half.

    I agree with the comment about the bridge cutting through the middle. You might consider a slight crop on the bottom. But still good as is.

    On second thought. Leave it alone. I think it works better as is.

    I like this shot and its "story" too. The bridge in the center doesn't bother me since there are three basic lines anyway, the coast, the bridge and the horizon.

    I agree about the grainy texture at the top being very distracting, but I love the blue tones on the cityscape. Gives it a very mellow feel. Great shot!
