Very cool. The colors are much fuller and it gives more of a sense of depth. Nice work =)

Nice shot.

I'd straighten the lamp posts a bit and maybe lighten the bridge sidewalls to bring out those leading lines.

Thanx. Now that you mentioned it, It looks like the lamps have a inward cant at the tops.
To lighten the bridge rails: Would that involve masking? or what would be a better/correct route?
