Fall is the bridge to Winter

It was fascinating (in a road accident kind of way) to watch the hard-core drinkers line up a whole row of drinks and knock them back during the brief period duty-free service was offered. Or, of course, you could take the slow (but cheap) ferry, and get a couple of hours drinking time. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO: The bridge to...
Hi Bruce I like the composition - simple and very effective. A classic "lead the eye into the picture" composition. I'd like to have seen the same image photographed later in the day - I think the colours in the vegetation and soils in the distance might have had a bit more impact then? I didn't pick up on the apparent tilting of the bridge until John mentioned it but I can see what he means.

Re: The bridge to...
Thanks for the suggestions. Fortunately it is somewhat close. I'm guessing it will be better with morning light, as it sits 1000 feet down in the bottom of the canyon. Not much sunset light to speak of. I'll have to get up early a couple of mornings and see what it looks like. -- Best regards, Bruce Saturday, August 7, 2004, 12:35:38 PM, you wrote: KW> Bruce, the scene looks like it has possibilities, the railings running off KW> into the distance really grab my attention.

Hello Don, I truly appreciate comments. This is a case where I am unsure about my overall feelings concerning this one. So I figured on putting it up and getting some feedback from others, who's opinions I value.

No offense meant, certain things just get to me. We have a couple of beautiful covered bridges up north, they put "Chain Link Fence" :-( over the windows so no one would jump out! Might's well have painted the beautiful aged oak purple! You are of course 100% correct, just my (old hippie) hangup about "steel and concrete" in otherwise attractive settings. The railing just happened to be the first thing that caught my eye. Someone else was distracted by the background, with me it was the railing.

Re: The bridge to...
Bruce, the scene looks like it has possibilities, the railings running off into the distance really grab my attention. Your image doesn't do much for me - centered makes it static & the lighting is harsh (try this again around sunrise or sunset), also a different point of view (higher or lower camera height would help make it more interesting). Hope it is close by so you can easily return and work it.
