Thanks John and Bob!! Actually, the support post is in actual perspective! This is a curved pedestrian Suspension Bridge. That is one of only 2 Supports that are both angled away from the curve to offset the pull created!! Quite Unique actally.. I retried this in B/W, and it works better, but I think I just need to go out and re-shoot it;)

With perspective correction, to retain the original proportions (more or less), make sure you move the handles at top and bottom to keep the mid point on the original edge of the frame. In other words, if you move the top handle out, move the bottom handle in the same amount to keep the mid-point of that edge of the transformation box on that edge of your untransformed image.

I'd also go with bumped up contrast. One other thing that may be worth a try is perspective correction on the bridge support to the left. I always find that a tricky thing to pull off myself - about half the time, I end up ruining the shape of the object and go back to the original anyway.

Robert, good subject and composition. Tricky light and the glare is a bit overpowering; I wonder whether bumping the contrast might help. Good shapes to explore.
