This is my favourite of the three. The tinting really works well and contributes to the mood of the image but again, the really big draw for me is the fabulous contrast of the foliage and the trunks along with their reflections. Very nicely done. -Najinsky

I like the other bridge, as I said, but this one really takes the cake. I can imagine that it's a spectacular poster.

Oh,

CJ, you hit the nail on the head. Tinted IR. The white leaves gave it away, didn't it?

Thank you, CJ, Lydia, & Bob,

This image is one of my favorites and the composition is a bit on the complex side. However, this image is meant to be printed large. At 24X36, it works a lot better. Interesting isn't it how size affects composition. Thank you all for your comments and I welcome all additional comments!

My favorite of the two lovely bridge images Binh. Is this a tinted IR - very interesting processing! CJ

Oh WOW! I like this. It's unusual in blue... I was thrown off at first. But, after a bit of study, this is really an interesting shot. I like the vertically centered topic in this case. The reflection really works. Well done, Binh. ~Lydia

I do like this better Binh in that it has a more radical contrast than the previous two.

I love the colours in this, and those trees are just stunning.

I'm thinking that if you have enough pixels available, a really tight crop to just pick up a section of the bridge, trees and sky you might have an image with even more impact and less complexity. (Sometimes, less is more?)

Beautiful composition Binh. ~ Regards Melbob
