You deserve a "6" and more. Congratulations on your "bridges" win. You deserve it, artist friend. The view is excellent and your capture of the scene is so skilled. I really like all of the scene, including the bridge, the foliage on this side and the scene on the other side, through the bridge.

    Thank you very much Glena, for your great review! It was the view under the arch that I liked about it, so often the scene beyond a bridge is really boring!
Comment from Susan F. M. T.


A very beautiful picture of the sunlit view under the stone bridge over a river with the trees growing along the river bank & the blue sky all reflected on the river's glistening surface. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus. Is it up in Northumberland?

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of that lovely bridge and its location. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

It is indeed a beautiful scene you have pictured here, and I especially like how lovely the light is falling on the trees and underneath the bridge. You have also captured so well the fine reflections in the shiny water under the bridge.

The photo is very sharp showing clear and well defined details in the bridge and the trees, and the exposure is perfect. The colors look nice and natural.

The format and framing is very good, and with the trees off to the right, and arch of the bridge off to the left, it is a very good balance in the composition. It is a truly lovely and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

This is an amazing picture! I am absolutely n love with bridges of all shapes and sizes. But I particularly love sleepy old country bridges such as these! Excellent job!

Absolutely beautiful visual of this amazing bridge. The water reflection adds to the rich colors of the banks and tree leaves. The backdrop brings the subject matter into focus. Very lovely addition!

This appears to be the capture of a stone arched bridge in the late afternoon with beautiful reflections and very pastoral. Beautiful work and the best of luck in the contest. Ray

Beautiful image. Great composition, color and lighting. Fantastic view with the trees and rolling hills in the background and lovely reflection in the foreground. This would be stunning as an oil pairing. Love it. Good Luck!
