I agree, Marc: this a photo about motion that maybe you can't see at glance, but that it IS in all its strenght. endika

There's a lot to see in that picture, from the details of the bridge, the colours, the impression of tranquility, the two guys... I could spent a few minutes in front of this one. A real sense of time !

This has that trade-mark Shirley glow-of-late-evening-lighting.
The composition is great too, the right hand part of the scene could be a hundred miles from anywhere, the left hand says the modern world in motion, rushing over the modern highway bridge, oblivious the beauty below.

I love this shot for many reasons. Here's just one: The very different perspective of the reflected bridge beams versus the airborne ones. Terrific.

I like it Shirley, tranquil and indirect motion. Nice symmetry between the far bank and bridge supports.

Very nice and warm light, composition and scenery, Shirley. Bring some memories of My fishing days. I find "distracting" little piece of sky in the middle, but no, composition will be to much closed. It is good just like you made it.
