Tubular

I was extremely pressed for time today, so I stopped by my Bold Point "safety shot" location. Luck was with me in that the water in the Seekonk River was extremely calm, resulting in these interesting reflections of the triple arches that support the Washington Bridge. The reflections make the arches look more like tubes than half-pipes. The hazy sky, reflected in the calm water, added a bit of a surreal quality to the shot.

Post processing started with a warm tone filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color saturation sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, boost black, boost white, and protect highlights. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.

Here's the high res version in Smugmug: http://kannafoot.smugmug.com/Photo-Challenges/PAD2013/i-FtGhZCK/0/XL/2013%2004%2010_0028%20copy-XL.jpg
What a wonderful shot. Like the choice of sepia tones.

This is a great mirror effect photo. I think it would have been even better if you had cropped out more of the sky and extra water. Really showcasing the bridge and reflection.
