Default Jack Knife Swing Bridge

Jack Knife Swing Bridge Fisheye

Another Thunder Bay, Ontario landmark. This shot was taken with my fisheye lens on the D300. I decided to go for a more dramatic angle then the usual straight on shot. As with a few other photos of mine I applied a sepia tone and gave it that nice nostalgic feel. I think the result is quite interesting but let me what you guys think!

Very unique take on this. and for that very reason is why I like this. Any other angle would be ho hum but this gives it a nice dramatic flare.

hi
great job on this. The tone and angle gives a different take on what could be just a shot of a bridge. i always look for different angles and a possible conversion to b/w or an opposite.
its dramatic and interesting, like the little perpaective too!!
love it.
heres an example of a shot i took of a crane nr a river-
cheers

Nice...the clouds also add to the dramatic feel to it.
