Thanks much all :-) I do like my polarizer but didn't use it here CJ. After so many days of grey sky it was nice to get a little late evening blue in there. I think I added just a little more drama by sliding my white balance up a notch in ACR and used the same program to eek out a little more detail in the shadows under the bridge.

Nice POV Brent - another good shot for the challenge, this one showing different forms of power. I like all the geometric lines here. Did you use a polarizer here as that sky kinda has that look? :-) CJ

Two powerful elements that make this shot so effective: 1. the mass and size of the bridge and 2. the triangle of sky slicing through it. The left and right sides of the triangle can also be analyzed as two "vectors", which provide the sense of penetrating force. -tv
