Here's my favorite I came up with. It's straight out of the camera.

CC appreciated and welcomed...

Honestly (as I'm sure others will say), the image here is just way to small to provide any kind of serious comments about. I usually post my images here somewhere around 800 pixels or so on the longest edge and some folks post even larger. I'd suggest posting a larger image so folks can actually see it...

Peace,
Jim

does this help any? I was uploading to shutterfly before so it gave a smaller image. This seems to do more justice

Exposure has a lot of atmosphere, well done on the focus. Composition is a bit cluttered for me.

The image still seems rather small to me (although honestly I don't really remember how small it was yesterday) but either way I have to agree with nwa2...the focus looks good and I think the exposure is decent too but the the composition looks a little "busy" for my tastes. In my mind, there is some confusion as to what this image is actually about....is it supposed to be about the bridge or the docks in the foreground? They eye tends to wander around a bit looking for something to latch on to as far as a subject goes.

I do think the bridge is interesting in itself. Suspension bridges usually make for interesting pictures and subject matter. I think if you could find a different vantage point with less clutter in the foreground, you could probably come up with a better shot.

Peace,
Jim
