Under the Bridge 1

I'm having a hard time deciding whether I prefer the landscape or portrait orientation. I took this in a brief break between storms. We now have really high winds and they are predicted to get up to 75 mph so I think I will pass on going out in it!
Thanks much for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs. I'd be curious which orientation you prefer and whether or not you can find the seagull!

Check on this against black, Jane - fabulous! My favorite. Love your lighting. Fav Those winds sound vicious!

[Pat Knowles]

Has to be this one but has to be against the black!

[Pat Knowles]

Is the seagull a shadow on the wall?

[sally agnew]

I love the pov :)

[Jane Pittenger]

@happypat nope

[Pat Knowles]

Oh I see it now, to the left of the bridge sitting on a red thing.

[Jane Pittenger]

@happypat yup

[Paula W]

Nice repetition Jane, looks great on black.

[Pam Knowler]

Gorgeous on black! My favourite!

This is my favorite of the two...love it !

[Carla]

This is terrific too The first layer is especially pleasing, such perfect shapes

[Rosie Kerr]

Love, love the symmetry and repetition of the shapes. Wonderful shot. My preference of the two. A tiny (very tiny) suggestion... I might (ever so lightly) swipe my LR brush over the two arched areas in the front to very slightly lighten them. I suspect that there might be some interest there. Super shot. :) Fav.

[Jane Pittenger]

@rosiekerr I actually darkened them because there was ugly lens flare.,thanks though

[Rosie Kerr]

@jgpittenger Oops... nothing like the original photographer's eye!

[Janet B.]

Wow! And I agree with Milanie...this is extra special on black. I love the strong vertical lines and the layers.

[Jane Pittenger]

@rosiekerr but you were right, it would be nice to see the detail in the foreground pillars...if I just hadn't gotten flared

[Karen Mitchell]

Well this is fabulous repetitive pattern and lighting.

[Taffy]

I really really like this a lot. I think the depth is terrific and I really like how our eye is drawn in and the pilings behind are so tack sharp. Are you also posting the landscape version? Will check your recent photos.

[Kim]

This is gorgeous, I love the repetition and the lighting!

[Shepherdman's Wife]

I think I prefer the landscape version but this is wonderful too

[Joan Robillard]

It's like a temple water.

[Junko Y]

I like how the touch of brighter green on the left keeps the image from being too symmetrical and adds visual interest to the already beautiful image.

[Gillian]

Fabulous. I prefer the portrait version. Fabulous lighting.

Gorgeous pov, framing, and textures, fav.
