	Lights on the Skyway by racer091 Comment by Falc: Hi, well reading through the comments folks left on your image during thechallenge, there appears to be 2 main issues which can be dealt with faily easily. The first is the size of the submission, its obviously less than the 640 pixels which you are allowed, and this makes it difficult to see much detail in the image. I don't know which image processing software package you use but its usually possibl the save at a given size. It certainly is with Photoshop, and with Paintshop Pro. The aim is to maximise the size (one side 640pixels) whilst maintainging the quality and keeping the filesize under 150k. Sometimes this is a bit of a juggle. The second issue most people picked up on was the lighting. I think that the lighting is fine, doark enhances the lights on the bridge, but because of the size issue, we can't actually see the details, Most people would have given you the benefit of the doiubt had the detail been available to them. Compositionally I think there are a couple of tricks you could have used to help this image. I would have liked to see the large uprights placed on the 1/3 and 2/3 lines within the image. These are strong elements and placing them at the golden third intersections would really emphasise the structures. Someone has already pointed out that theres a fair bit of wasted space at the top of the image, I would agree and crop some of this off in Photoshop (PS) I notice that there are two vehicles crossing the bridge. With a longer exposure these lights could have been used to emphasise the line of the bridge roadway. Use a neutral density filter to extend the exposure. I'd be aiming for 8-10 seconds timed to co-incide with the vehicles. Hope some of that helps. Falc

	Lights on the Skyway by racer091 Comment by RatedR: I like the picture, but I think it is a little bit under exposed

	Lights on the Skyway by racer091 Comment by neverbeaten: a tad underexposed or under-cropped (lop off some of that black sky and sea)

	Lights on the Skyway by racer091 Comment by ericsuth: interesting shot, might be a little better if you cropped closer in and used the 640xSomething
