Blue Hour Severn Crossing Bridge
Posted By: Sunburn, 03-20-2017, 09:15 AM

Hello guys, here is The Severn Crossing illuminated against the early morning blue hour, with Its towers and lights reflecting like piano keys in the still waters below.
I hope you enjoy.

Regards
Geoff

I tend to agree. But I also feel that the photograph would benefit from a bit more of the shoreline to the right, and a crop across the top and bottom to give it a more panoramic look.

The colors are near perfect though.
I agree. Cropping to make more of a pano would be something worthy of hanging on the wall. Love it!

Thank you for your comment and feedback. This is quite an old image of mine, I may have a look at cropping it down to a 16:9 or 16:10 -- unfortunately the right hand side of the frame which I didn't include was very messy and was more of a distraction, so I was torn in trying to find symmetry between the towers and lighting and balancing that against the shoreline on either side of the estuary.
