Well done. The only thing I'd look at is that the arch of the bridge is tangent to the horizon and those background towers seem to be growing out of the top of the bridge. I'd try for a different angle, lower and camera right, which might make a better composition.

Great job, doesn't look like an HDR, just looks like an exceptional shot.

I don't like HDR usually but it works here. Very subtle. Very nice!

Very very nicely done HDR mate!

Remove the things on top of the bridge, other than that I'd say nice shot!

Thanks all for the comments.
I used a Canon 10-22mm @ 14mm and the 50D. That 10-22 is just an awesome lens. I really am liking it.

What gear did you use to take that?

Wondeful! Brings back memories...I lived in Austin for 15 years. I actually lived in a neighborhood about a mile up from that bridge (Rob Roy). You captured the light trails very well. One thing to work on is the subject matter in the foreground, like the rock and trees. They are a bit muted...maybe a little added color. And a crop so that branch coming into the sunset cant be seen. Other than that I enjoy this image.

Thanks for the comments...Great ideas guys. MrSiki99, I agree I thought the same as you. I was more focused on getting the image right (HDR wise) Hopefully Ill be able to make it back up there soon and give some of the ideas and such a go...

Those are not on the bridge. They are radio towers in the distance probably located at the highest elevation in the area.
