It's too dark on the right side of the image. You could play around with contrast a little to correct that..but I can't think of anyother way of doing that..I like the bridge and feel it should be main subject of the image, but sunlight doesn't reach it. Is there no time in the day when there is sunshine on the bridge..trying taking the picture then..

I love it. I actually like the light/dark contrast.

nice image, i like this one. maybe a seperate shot of the same scene but closer up on the bridge with it reflecting in the water might look nice?

This is an incredible scene but it lacks pizzaz. Perhaps if you boosted the reds int he leaves would give it more luster

Fall Colors
Agree with windrider86. Adjusting contrasts to make the colors pop out would add pizzaz - not only on the leaves, but on the water reflection as well:

bridge copy

i personally like the first one better. As for the first comment about the light/darkness, i really like it. The first thing i thought of was the great contrast in the shot and the movement from dark to light created by the bridge. great shot!
