Greetings from the Critique Club };-)
Initial thoughts
Great bridge, meets the challenge, may be a bit dark.
Composition/ Content
The composition is wonderful. It makes me want to follow the bridge to see what is over that hill. The light bouncing off of the right of the bridge is excellent as well.
Technical
Focus seems good and contrast is excellent for the difference in light and shadow you have here. The only thing I would like to see is a little more light. I think that would have brightened up the bridge and made the morning light even more of a focal point. It may have really made a killer shot.
My Opinion On The Photo
I originally scored this shot a six. I think that it meets the challenge well but could have been improved a little to finish even higher than it did. Good job, and keep up the good work.
I would be happy to talk further about this shot if you would like to contact me.

| The bridge seems a bit to dark to me, and the sunlight washes out the back of the photo. I understand taking a shot into the light, but in this case it doesn't look right to me. |

| Great shot. I especially enjoy the mist, or haze of the morning sun. |

| Good work - such as interesting time to take this shot. It's very dark and moody, but that works kind of well. |

| Nice idea, but this image is too dark. Maybe taken from another angle or another time of day would have made the picture easier to see. |

| It's a great idea and the bridge itself is lovely to look at, but I think everything is too dark in the foreground. |

| Breathtaking shot! Love the way the arches disappear in the dark, and the distant shadows. 9 |

| This photo has so much potential after you do some post-editigng. Right now, it looks kind of washed to me, but it's still a great shot. |

| I love the highlights on the substructure of the bridge, but the darkness of the bottom of the frame overwhelms the shot. Perhaps it would benefit from a slight increase in gamma? |

| Very nice aerial perspective and I love the way the bridge disappears into the background. I do wish however that the shadow area of the mountain contained a little bit more detail and also wish the sky wasn't blown out. Possibly the use of a polarizing lens filter and a little bit more exposure would have soloved these problems. |

| Nice shadow effects on the early moring mist. Like it how the bridge leads the eye across the frame. Shame about the sky, must have been difficult, if not impossible, to get the right exposure. 8 |

| Is that in West Virginia, by chance? Looks like the "New River Gorge" bridge, which was designed in my neck of the woods. |

The sky is a bit too overexposed, but the composition and the atmosphere are just great. Congrats
