I have been wanting to shoot this bridge for a while. It was foggy and windy yesterday when I shot it. Should I re-shoot? Thanks for the critiques.

From the two I think I like the first one better, the blown sky on the second does not work for me I guess, also I prefer the angle of the shot from the first one, though I think I would crop more on the left and try it on B&W or boost the colors to avoid "flatness"

I prefer the first one but would like to see the bottom of the left tower if possible.
It needs to either more contrast or converted as Rob pointed out.

I think I'd like to see it wider, the left edge of #2 and the right of #1 - maybe you can make it a panoramic?
I prefer the end of the bridge in #1, in #2 I think it all ends to abruptly at the right edge.
But I like the context of the road leading into the bridge in #2.
So either a merged pano, or buy a wider lens and go back there !
Oh and more fog/mist would be fine
Particularly low lying morning mist over the river.
Thanks for the good info guys. I have some more shots I still need to go through. I like all of your ideas.
Thanks again
