Nice shot Bryan, I was wondering who took this one, I was just there two days before the challenge, A classic shot and I could see it being a a big selling psotcard for sure. Congrats on 13th place in this tough challenge!

I love the unique perspective of this shot. The balance of negative and positive space is perfect. Your usage of the rule of thirds is well noted. An overall great shot and a perfect a postcard. Way to go.

great, nice composition and colors

I'm voting this a 6. It would have been higher without the cables left of the tower. I realize that might have gotten you a DQ, though.

Wonderful juxtaposition of the bridge tower and San Francisco downtown. Wish that there were a bit less of the black lower left, maybe a slight crop would help.

A subdued font treatment would have been more appropriate here (forget all that embossing - it's generally cliche), but I love the composition & light! Excellent job...

I like this because it's not the Golden Gate you've seen a thousand times.

Great work!

great composition and color! - The use of the hill in sillhoiette foreground for the text is great

Outstanding! One of my favorites. I really like this angle of the bridge -- super!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/21/2006 01:23:17 PM
The lighting on this is perfect. The bridge has a nice even color and the city behind is not overpowering yet it is an integral part of the picture. Good luck.

Wonderful capture of that old bridge at night. Really good.

Incredible shot!!!!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/20/2006 08:17:27 AM
Certainly has a postcard look and feel to it. Nice job of processing done with this. I like the way you've laid out the main subjects to balance the composition. The black diagonal of the hillside works great for placing the text. No complaints here. Good luck!

I really like this shot however you took away a lot by using the black area to put the text in (about a full third of the frame actually). A different color of font etc and placed elsewhere would allow you to show more of the bridge.

gorgeous. great placement of the text
