Black n White Bridge-long exposure

Really would like some feed back on this photo just not sure if it works or not!

I really like this.

I quite like this however I find my eye drawn the the bridge on the left more than the distant pillars, because the near part of the bridge is sharper. if this is intentional that's cool, however I feel like the pillars and supports are where everything is leading me but it isn't sharp. I'm not sure the left nearest pillar is contributing much to the cleanness of the image and I would be tempted to crop it off.

I love the tones and the image in general. Nice

If I understand you correctly I have cropped the inside of the bridge pillar on the left, and I also slightly lightened the bridge

Yes, much better. I'd crop even a little bit more off the left side.

little more crop on the left side

I personally would prefer a crop between the 2nd and 3rd versions. Your edits have helped the image and the second feels much more balanced.. It is important to try to get the main focal point of your image sharp if possible as this is where people will often be drawn to.

I hope I helped.

Nice shot, probably the last crop is best, but also try what Dave G suggested. My comment would be to try to bring the shadows up a little bit under the bridge and see how that looks, seems very dark in that part of the picture. Will be less noticeable if you go with the last crop, more noticeable with more of the bridge in the picture.
