Greetings from the Critique Club
Initial thoughts/My opinion
Great clear image, speaking of lines, texture and a wonderful sky. To me it does not work for National Geographic too well.
Content/Composition
You captured at the right moment a wonderful place: as your title says the image speaks by its clear and crisp appearance. The leading line of the bridge, the texture of its wood and of the surrounding field work very well together. That the walk leads to the small forest makes the horizon more interesting and the great clouds make the image complete.
I really can't see any flaw here.
Camera work -technically
You did a great job technically: focus, exposure and white balance all set very well.
Digital Processing - Technical
Also regarding the post processing no issue to be mentioned. Especially the sharpening is well done: not too much, just right.
Fits the challenge
To my personal taste the image comes short here: I cannot envision a story that comes with the image. The title would have been a possibility to give the viewer an idea in what context to place the beautiful image.

Nice photo for the most part, but I think it may be somewhat generic and a little shoehorned into this challenge. |

You're absolutely right ... I lost my mind (thought I was still looking at road signs. This is a gorgeous shot!! Sorry about the mix-up. |

The rail and the bridge is an interesting element that helps lead your eyes toward the distant. The bold shadow of the railing on the floor is really nice. Beautiful clouds. |

This would look great if you cloned out shadow on wooden path |

Great colors, contrast, and clarity. I can't think of anything to make the picture better. |

What a beauty. Your composition is sublime. The weather looks cold - too cold to be so deeply colored - did you have to push the saturation a lot? I admire your eye. |

Wonderful angle. Very very good shot. You could have given a good title to make it fit the NG challenge. |

nice shot with perfect exposure. Think the bridge either needs to be centre or a bit more to the left. kind of neither here nor there as it stands. |

Beautiful shot, though not so national geographic-ish. You stood in the middle of the bridge to get a symmetrical shot, but the horizon isn't so symmetrical. It kind of throws you off a bit. I wonder if standing to the right of left side would make it more balanced? |

I absolutely fell in love with this photo. I wish I had your talent, I'd give you a 15 if they allowed it. 10 |

It sure is crystal clear (would like to know where this is) Excellent sky. Bridge pulls my eye into the shot well, would like to have something more interesting to look at or perhaps closer view of the trees. |

Nice, but the road/bridge/train tracks going off to the horizon is a bit of a visual cliche. |

Intriguing composition. The golden fields, sparse snow make me wonder where I am. |
