Cloning is taking a sample from one portion of the photo and re-applying it somewhere else -

Richmond/San Raphael Bridge

For starters, it's the Richmond San RAFAEL Bridge. But regardless of the unispired title, there's no drama,or tension. with tepid composition. No demonstration of the theme other than it's a bridge. This is a challenge - so make it one! Explore the possibilites - exploit perspective, angles, lighting, natural drama, something. This is soooo bland.
