Well, if it matters to you, I like it! LOL! I think it's very unique - certainly pulls the eye in. :) ~ Lonnit

Many thanks for comments. I do feel myself that this shot is a bit too busy. This is why I am asking whether the frame here:

is better? It contain less secondary detail, but geometry is a bit inferior (to my mind) too

Even though I agree with Richard in that there are too many distracting things in the picture, the triangle formed by the bridge and it's own shadow is superb. Colors are also great, I think it is worth voting it.

Richard, many thanks for comment and I can stand MUCH harsher criticism. As for winning a challenge, I feel that receiving constructive comments like yours is more important than winning

While this picture certainly has many slanting lines and triangles, I personally feel that the photo is too "busy" or has too much distracting detail as a winning entry for this challenge... But that's just my humble opinion. I'd like to see what others think here?
Many of these challenges centered around "compositional topics" have been won by entries having composition as simple as possible... Hope this does not sound too harsh?
