Swami, We all seem to be unable to comment on this very nice shot. Maybe because we are not used to so much man-made stuff in the images shown here. I enjoy looking at this, its now the 4th time I have opened it. At first I thought,wider, but I see it is at 17mm now. Then I thought, higher, but you probably didnt bring a ladder. Maybe my confusion will cause others to comment. It's still very nice. :jump:

Thanks for the comments Darren and Jerry.

I didn't expect this one to be such a conversation killer. Have I again stepped too far outside the NPN box? (another conversation to have sometime is what exactly I have come to observe as the "NPN box", it's certainly more constrained than "nature photography". e.g., what happened to Thomas_m and others who aren't trying to make wall hangings for waiting rooms?)

I see this as a picture in three parts: first the view down the bridge, and then taking a step back and looking left and right.
