good or bad?

Somedays I love this shot but something is off or missing. I can't figure out what it is.

i think it could be better with the whole bridge in the shot or possibly a little bit different angle,i really like the colors to
almost seems like its lacking a tad bit of quality.mabey its just me though

[focus.pocus]

yeah maybe a different angle with more of the bridge in it... still a nice shot

Hmmmmmmmm..........

Perhaps reduce saturation just a bit, decide whether the subject is the bridge/water/skyline or the skyline/sky, then crop it.

here are a couple.

First one I only adjusted the colors.
The second I recropped the original and did not correct the lens distortion.

I like the 2nd one.

And your picture has me stoked , I am going to be in Portland for a few days next month , and am bringing my kit so that after I finish checking out the knife show we can spend the rest of the weekend with our gear out checking out the sights.
