Hi


In your profile you state: “DO, give me feedback on my photos, please. I really want to learn.”

I will take you up on this.

Your pic is badly underexposed and is not exactly level. It is not by much but this little bit can spoil a picture. I have addressed this. As you will note I left the “waste” which you would normally crop out so you can see by how much it was corrected by.

As well your shot has a light blue cast which needs correcting.

Also brightened the rather dark tree foliage, which by the way make the picture interesting, but because of the darkness intrudes too much into the picture as well there is possibly a little bit much of it. If the interest was aimed at the bridge then there is definitely too much obstruction. Either re-position yourself when you frame the shot or a bit of a crop could help as well. However in this case a crop will not move the bridge into the field of interest. Don't ever be afraid experimenting with cropping to improve a pic. This is overlooked by a lot of people.
If you can make these small adjustments on the orginal you have a nice picture, perhaps not so much of general intrest to everybody but a pleasing photo nonetheless.

Hope it helps.

I like the view you give of the lift bridge {especially of the towers from which it is controlled} and of the urban area beyond the bridges.

Thank you. We have an interesting city to photograph here. I try to have my camera with me when I'm out and about. It forces me to look at my surroundings a bit differently.
