Bridge to Wigs - Improvements?

[paulsweany]

Hello! I hope this photograph is welcome here since it was taken on film. I usually shoot digital but occasionally use film. This is one of my better photographs but I'd like to hear some ideas on how I can improve this picture or shoot it in a different way. Any help is appreciated!

EXIF Info:
Nikon N65
AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D
50mm ISO200

Looks nice overall, I like the tonalities in this image. One edit I would suggest is to get rid of the traffic light along the from on the right.

Was this shot with B&W film or converted in computer?

Oh, that's a good idea about the traffic light. It was shot with black and white film.

Thanks for the reply!

I also like the tone of this one. If you are going to photoshop the light out on the right, then I would prefer the cloud line that passes through sphere removed as well. I find it to be a little distracting.

Great film work.

Thanks!

I see what you mean about the cloud. Thanks for the advice!

A great b&w, I really should put a few rolls though my old cameras.

I agree with Mike re cloning out the traffic light.

My other comment is that, though the bridge keep trying to lead my eye into the image, I get stuck at the first "bay" of the bridge - the one that heads off in a different direction to the rest of the structure.

A slightly tighter crop to exclude that bay might help with the flow?

I see how your eye gets stuck at that first part. That's a good idea about the crop.

Thanks for the reply!
