The bridge and the low sun are wonderful. However, does the almost black, almost featureless, left hand side contribute to the image? Perhaps crop to a different composition, with some enhancement of the sun's glow and the clarity of the bridge.

This is an amazing huge structure of girders and rivets, and a good composition for the photo. It just needs a boost in the processing to give more of an impression of depth in the scene.

Thanks Philip. That's a good critique. I'm not sure what a "boost" is but I've dialed in bit of contrast. And I think I know what bridge is as in the file name.

Thanks Ed for the B&W suggestion. Here it is.
I was a bit lost that day. A bit of research suggested the Cairo Bridge, but now I think it's the Shawneetown Bridge. What will I think next?
Hi W.D.
The other two were both good in their own ways, but, this B & W rendition is the winner from where I'm sitting and that Kenworth or is it a Mac? Puts some perspective and appreciation of scale into the image.
First class job, well done.
Regards.
Phil.

I had a hard time identifying the bridge. Getting the truck make will surely be guesswork from me.
This 18th century brick bridge crosses the River Colne (a tributary of the River Thames) in Hertfordshire:

Any comments always welcome.

Phillip, your country has the most beautiful/visually appealing bridges, and architecture in general. Nothing even approaches the beauty and design of this bridge in my neck of the woods!! And the way that you have captured it is superb.
I just hope the authorities look after them for future generations to enjoy - they are under increasing strain from the rising volume and weight of traffic.
