 Taken from a boat entry area on the James River in Buchanan, VA. I took it from ground zero (literally) in that I placed the camera on the ground in the gravel to get the perspective.

Post-processing included cropping, straightening, and increasing color saturation.

The bridge cables were actually in much better focus at higher resolution, but I had to sacrifice some quality to reduce to "DPC qualifying" file size (although maintained ratios).

Low angle is great. Looking up is different.

interesting perspective. I don't care for the color treatment of the sky

Great dof, good job..a slightly higher angle would've given the picture more bang
