Bridge

Over Buffalo River

Actually the trickiest part of this image was not overexposing the background (rectangular exit from the bridge). It was relatively dark under the bridge and I wanted the detail of the steel, but the background was way over exposed. In this image that overexposure is corrected, not perfect but better.

Olympus D-580Z
1/200s f/5.2 at 17.4mm iso50 full exif

You did a great job on this Don, I see no overexposure at all. My parents grew up in this area, we cross this bridge often when we head to the marina.

Beautiful shot... sun/shade exposures are a pain - this turned out quite well though!
