Very nice except for one thing. I find the sun very distracting at the intensity it is coming over the bridge it keeps pulling my eye to the left. Might have been better to let it get either behind the bridge a bit or lower in the sky or stop down to maybe f22 to get a star effect. But for the most part it is beautiful. Was there any PP done to it to boost the colors?

It's a nice shot but I think WVcoalminer is right about the sun.

Thank you and thanks for the feedback.

Processing was minimal in Photoshop, just a slight contrast tweak and that's it. Hopefully I'll have some good weather again tonight to try a few different shots again.
