• Don't worry, it's an outstanding shot. Love the light reflection here. - cosplay shooter

Genuine Dilemma

I've got a bit of a SSC project on the go at the moment, so I've been working through a lot of my old shots. I've come across this one which I took back in February, and I'm surprised I hadn't already posted it.
I'm thinking that I convinced myself at the time that although I love the lighting, the colour was just too much. Looking at it now however, I'm not quite so sure.
Maybe its a bit of a marmite shot.
Would welcome anyone's thoughts

-Added to theCream of the Crop pool as my best of 2008.

    Excellent lighting Terry! I love the sun beaming against those rails on the side of the bridge!

  9. wentloog (44 months ago | reply)

    I'm with Jayne, probably the best photo of the SSC that I've seen on Flickr, or anywhere else for that matter!

    Even if the colours looks a bit un-natural in first place.. It is a excellent composition and shot of the bridge.. The water and the narrow cloud makes it perfect. Brilliant work terry..

    This reminds me of photos a good friend of mine used to take of the SSC her name was Shirley Mogford who used to live in Cric. She has received international awards for her bridge photos and this is in the same class.

    Wonderful colours and composition. Id be very pleased if this was my work
