Great perspective Brian.
I like your angle, the leading lines of the pier, the soft misty like fog, the sharp focus and crisp details.
Unique and different ;)
Well done!

The repeating patterns of the piles and the diagonal lines of the pier disappearing in the mist makes for a nice composition. You can never go wrong with fog in your image

I am not so sure the "U" in your title stands for a noun or an action, but I really like the photo. Especially because of your point of view with the fine leading lines, and also the mist over the water.

The photo is sharp with clear and well defined details to be seen in the pier, and I also think the exposure is very good.

The format and framing is perfect, and with the placement of the pier off to the right, it is a very fine balance in the composition. I think this is a lovely and well taken photo Brian, and with an excellent DOF; I wish you luck with the contest.

This is an interesting view. Your photo is excellent focused and exposed and has impressive depth. I appreciate the realism of color and light and the definition of detail. The fog adds a mystical feel. The pier seems to varnish within the indefinite background. The tall format emphasizes the pier perfectly. The photo is composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

I love this. U curved Bridge with an interesting architecture and the beautiful mist in the back are great to view.
Wonderful composition, details with the clouds covering the horizon. Very nice contest entry!

    Now I know. We went in 17 miles long bridge in Carolina- I think., it remained me that one. It also went over the ocean.

That's really Cool,Brian! : )
It's a delightfully 'Out of the Ordinary' type of a picture with a pleasingly eerie and mysterious kind of a tone to it!
( In other words it's 'just the sort of thing that I really like to see'! )

A pretty good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine positioning makes your composition emphasise its length very nicely. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!

This is a great scene, love the fog rolling in from the ocean, the long beach of sand, the sturdiness of this pier is scene from underneath it, I like the perspective of the view, very nice and expressive at the same time

I love the angle on this one Brian. Great entry for this contest. The haze is wonderful. It makes it appear never ending. Well done. This one will do very well.

Interesting perspective , I feel as if I am under the pier , I like the way the pier disappears into the mist. Well focused, clear image with correct light management, colors and tones appear natural in this lighting .well composed in the vertical format. Well presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!
