Railroad bridge at night

**Edit: please move this to travel & landscapes. Sorry for the misplacement.**

Tonight was my first time shooting after dark with my 350D. I was pleased with the way this one came out. Converted from RAW. I still need to do a little work to it like straighten the horizon when i get some better editing software. Constructive comments are welcome.

30s exposure, f14, 28mm focal length, ISO 100.

Nice shot, love the bridge and the exposure looks good, some pp would make this image sing.

I really like the shot but I find the bright lights to the upper left of the photo a bit distracting.

Maybe if you did multiple exposures and combined them to tone down the lights a bit it would help. I'm not really sure how else to work with it.

Excellent exposure, save for some blown highlights. Good job.

Thanks for the comments. I noticed the lights in the upper left as well. I'm working on getting a good image editing software program. When that happens I will do some research on the web as to how to combine multiple exposures. This scene is local so i can head down there and take some more photos any time.
