This picture stopped me in my tracks. I like the large shapes and the blurry water making a nice background. In all a fantastic image, well done!

Fantastic image, spot on title too. Congratulations David. I like! Stiff competition this one, but I think you got it right Camramadbob.
Having said that, I also reckon all entrants here are to be congratulated, what a stunning array of beautiful images.

Infinity Bridge by Tyronet2000 This was a very close 2nd place. This image was also attractive with large shapes and the reflection filling the frame. Nice capture!!

Over the Bridge AndrewA-Well earned 3rd place for this image. I like the texture of the snow and the infinity point behind the person. I like the cross lighting giving depth to the to the bridge. Nice image!

A Bridge to no where-Gamka. Good depth of field giving the bridge a longer span pulling you in to the rocks.

Bridge over the river 7-Jim W I presume this is a HDR. I liked the texture and the dreamy effect.

From past to Future-ArsenAL Night shots always have impact and the use of a fisheye just expands the experience.

Norway-Denmark-Velimir The person looking out drawing your eye to the ship in the background, unfortunately lacked impact and the pillar was quite distracting.

Small footbridge-Johannes1. I like the stillness of the water and the reflections, i would have liked to see more of the sky. Nice shot otherwise.

M1 North,Johannesburg. Nice shapes again,but i cant see any message in the photo.

Bridge over the river Tiber -Paulb531 This shot has a lot of potential, i think a better time of the day may have give the subject more impact.

Foot Bridge in woods-nicesparky I like run down footbridges covered in graffiti, although i felt this was more a urban photo.

Sellin on Rügen-AlexLuther A nice shot,nice sky but i feel i have seen this type of picture to often.

gallery in the Baltic-geordie01 Good use of Black and white for a gritty effect. I felt this shot would look as a record cover picture.

AirBridge-Aliengrove Ive tried shots like this myself and never got clarity of this one,otherwise a good capture.

Triplets-Frankie. Good use of double or triple exposure.

The Tyne-Bforbes Good compression shot but i cant help myself turning up the colour a little!

Manchester Ship Canal-TimE Another good compression a pity the sky wasn't helping much.

thanks

Congrats to David, Stan and Andrew for their podiums, and thanks to Camramadbob for the comp and judging.
Should have said not a true HDR, just a single image tonemaped in Photomatrix.

Jim.

Thanks for the win Bob, my picture had some stiff opposition from Stan and Andrew so it was an honour to be selected for 1st place. It was a great subject you chose and there were some fine images. I'm a lover of bridges of all kinds, especially artistic modern ones.
Thanks for your judging and helpful comments
David
