Thanks very much, Frank! I think the most valuable thing I've
learned from this image is to follow my gut when it tells me there's
something "right" about a photo.
Your kind words are much appreciated.

Here's a shot of an old, rather narrow bridge spanning the Mississippi
River, between Cairo, IL and Bird's Point, MO. I almost deleted it,
thinking it was an extremely unremarkable, standard photo taken while
crossing bridges by tourists the world over. But, when I got to looking at
the shadows and lines, I thought, "Ah-ha! This might be salvageable!" So,
I converted it to B/W and was pretty pleased with it after all.

Thoughts? Critiques? Gratuitous insults?
Wow, that's a beautiful rendering. B&W really gives it a "vintage"
look as befits an old structure like that.
Terrific composition. Love old bridges, and you really captured and
presented this one very well.
cheers,
