Akashi Kaikyo Bridge 明石海峽大橋

suggestion..
Akashi Kaikyo Bridge 明石海峽大橋 by Shenghung Lin.
The Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge (明石海峡大橋), also known as Pearl Bridge, is a suspension bridge in Japan that crosses the Akashi Strait; it links Maiko in Kobe and Iwaya on Awaji Island as part of the Honshu-Shikoku Highway. It is the longest suspension bridge in the world to date, both in terms of total length (3,911 m or 12,826 ft) and in terms of its center span (1991 metres or 6532 ft). ~ Wikipedia.

good pic, one minor distraction is the bottom left where the walkway is.

I usually don't leave comments about cropping, but in this case I do agree with the suggestion left by nonlinear1 :) Having said that, the photo is very nice, I love the light especially.

@laura: You're too kind.

@tonyharrison, nonlinear1: I've thought about it when I took the picture, but desided to keep the walkway, otherwise the picture will be a little dull to me. Well, it's my personal taste. Thanks for the comment.

@all: Thanks for comments, any kind of comment is welcomed.

Beautiful perspective. I agree with the crop suggestion above, though.

I agree with the crop idea. I think the bit in the bottom pulls the eye away from the majesty of the bridge a bit. Wonderful shot anyways though!

That bridge just goes on forever and ever.... I agree with the crop suggestion - would make the image that much more focused.. great photo though!

Funny thing about perspective, I view it as though I'm on top from the ledge looking down south to the end of the world at the bottom, and that vertical speeding train. Makes my day!

I also agree with the crop suggestion. It's a good picture, but with the crop it would put the bridge in a much more prominent, eye-catching position and I think that would make it a great picture. :)

Still, a fave either way! :-)

@all: OK, OK. I see your point of cropping :-) I'll cut out and post another picture when I'm available, and leave this here to remind me: I could be wrong from time to time!

fabulous - I had seen a TV program about the building of this bridge and apparently there were many obstacles to overcome, largely related to how wicked the strait is....
