Thanks for the comments all :-) For the "many" I had in mind all the bridge support pillars Penny. I first drove by below this bridge a few months ago and was immediately struck by how many supports there were. I guess maybe the wide angle de-compresses the view to lessen the visual impact of them a bit. The entire bridge must be a mile long with potential for a repetition shot, but there were too many distracting elements surrounding the bridge to make that sort of shot a nice one.

I love the perspective - great picture - but ... I must be missing something because I dont see many. Penny Street

I can't get over the feeling that it is collapsing from the thrust as it proceeds into the picture space. The vectors play havoc with my sense of equilibrium. Neat effect. Intended? -tv

Looks great Brent. The wide angle added to the interesting composition. -Doug

Good perspective and nice repetition - I like how the road moves diagonally across the frame from upper right to lower left. I might be tempted to crop the bottom building out and maybe rotate the image a bit but ??????, looks good as is too. CJ

Quickly did something similar to what you suggested and like the result Rod. Thanks mate :-)

Thanks mate :-) Yes amazingly we have a bright sunny day going in Seattle today. I managed to sneak out for a bit and shoot a few. This was the first of the batch I quickly processed during a busy day and I do like your treatment in pending. If I have a chance later I'll darken this up some and with luck maybe even post one or two others before I head out of town.

Excellent composition Brent this looks great with the first bridge support taking us up to the bridge & then the bridge takes us down through the picy. A really nice looking scene & picy. It has the look of a bright & sunny day but I think I must prefer things a bit darker so I did a curves pull down in the middle of the curve line & quite like the look of it. I may have gone a bit too far but you can see the results in Pending.
