Beautiful image, it could be an oil painting. I like the low framing and find the composition very good. The colors are great but some considerable loss of sharpness must have occurred during the scanning process.

The black frame that you put on this photo is perfect. Not as sharp as it could be, but as Roly said, that's probably due to the whole process getting it on the web. Very well done on a beautiful photo!

Very beautiful composition, with autumn colours and blue reflexion in water. Nothing to change. It is perfect.

Very nice autumn picture. Great composition with the bridge and it’s reflection. Also the colorful reflections of the trees add much interest. I like this shot, but must agree that it’s lacking sharpness (for example the old bridge stones probably have potential to look better)

Simple and amazing composition. The oval formed by the bridge and its reflection looks like an eye watching the warm Autumn colors all around. Well seen, Michael.

Très artistique cette photo qui nous annonce l'arrivée imminente de l'automne. Ce mélange de couleurs est fabuleux et le reflets ajouté aux détail des feuilles sur l'eau ne fait qu'ajouter de la valeur à ce cliché. Merci. Rudy.

I love those kind of old bridges.
I like your composition and the symmetry.
Very harmonic and peaceful image.

Nice shot Michael. Did you use a polarizer and a tripod? You really have caught the tranquility of the location well. I also like the crop, placing the bridge as high as you have. If you were to increase the saturation a little (bet you never thought you would hear that with E100SW) as well as burn the sky a little I think that it would help the image. What shutter speed were you using?

Very nice shot! Very nice colors! I like it! The water is so calm, great ambiance. Congragulations.

Great, great, great!!! Everything is perfect especially reflection! I like black frame on that picture!

I like so much this reflection which look like a painting. This bridge seems out of place here :). Beautiful mix of colours and nice framing.

djnik2004 (1696) 2004-10-09 10:58

Great Autumn colours, good positioning of the bridge as well, it gives the reflection lots of interest as well where it is place. Great frame as well, it really suits the shot!

Michael,
I like the reflection of the colors onto the water below the bridge. Your composition is excellent. Beautiful and serene!
