glad you did upload this picture, I had to convince myself thiswasnt a bryce render , perfect lighting and subject.

Andreas, I don't believe that there is any need for you to explain, or even try to explain your principles or reasons as to why you choose to upload this image or any other in fact. You take photographs, you understand the subject better than any other individual who then views it second-hand. The reason or motive behind the image is not relevant. Art is subjective, it is open to interpretation, and that is what counts. If you are happy with your presentation then that is what matters...true or false? Personally I enjoy creations of engineering, whether this century or thirty centuries ago and I think this is a very good piece of presentation.

Yes, obviously Eija is a great subject, this bridge loose against her with any doubt, I don't like the bridge very much but the atmoshere, the lights and the colours are wonderful and make it seems more nice that it is...Don't think bad Andreas, I don't like the bridge because I prefer nature construction, you know..and Eija...is a sweetie...she is my favourite subject to look at!!!..and Fenox too!!Huggs Lara

well eijah is a Goddess and The Goddess has to strutt her stuff..and wiggle that tail and bat those eyelids and drool..!!1 remembers why she,s here..evening my little swedish meatball..now something special about the Engineering of bridges.. love seeing the different cultural designs.. plus often depicts an era of the century of orgins.. l love symetrics and its so important to art and photography..and it shows the true artist inside.. have to have that eye of which you have.. and presented beautiful.. its your presentation your final lay out and appreciated by me..respecting your artistic freedom to explore ...its outstanding, and perfectly exposed.. wtg.!!!! :)))))..:)))

I set my browser up so that I could alt-tab between the two, and the first one is more a landscape, where the second one (As you intone) is a study of the bridge. I like them both equally for different reasons. This one shows better detail on the bridge, but the first one has more of the fabulous landscape in it! Excellent!!! By the way, I have done reposts of a couple 3D works, and subjected people to the same thing, no one hit me! ; ) Keep up the great work!

YEAAAAAA Congratulations my friend. On your first upload of this image. Both are fantastic.

I prefere this version to the first one, the crop give something more to your frozen bridge ! But I prefere your doggie walk with Eija in the middle of the forests ;o)))) Follow Eija Andreas, she know what is good for you ;o)))))) A big Hug.

Thank you Pete. What i meant was that i like to have some diversity if you will. I took probably 25 shots of this bridge that look just as good (or bad...up to you, lol) as this one. But if i were to upload all of those, i would either just sit back and wait till i uploaded them all before i "pushed" myself into thinking of what to capture next. Or i would keep photographing in the meanwhile...and most of those shots would grow mighty boring and dull to me before their time to be uploaded ever came. I do finish off "work" for my own personal pleasure, but when it comes to this gallery of mine here....i like to keep it variated. #:o) ...im probably making no sense, lol.

I like this one of the two because I feel it has a subject. The bridge is of an interesting construction and tells story of the type of terrain where it is.

A magnificent shot again. For me both versions are fantastic. Very interesting to see all the details of this frozen bridge. Excellent!!!

another beautiful shot ! love the reflection and the tones !

I love bridges..and this one is a beauty..love the soft flow of curves..you have captured her wonderfully...has such a warm COLD feeling..lol....know that makes no sense..but how I feel..

amazing - it looks nearly like a rendered 3D image

Well, I have to admit that this one would be my favorite of the two also. But I haven't changed my mind about the subject matter. Stuff like this allows me to travel in my mind back to my home town and days of my younger years. I used to spend a lot of time by myself thinking about life and everything in it. There was a particular bridge that I used to sit under. That's where I wrote some of my best poetry and love letters. Now I've gone on and went blah, blah, blah. Oops! I absolutely love the whole thing. V

hello, i have no chance this evening, just after i load my picture there is the message: server is gone away and now it's very very difficult to see the picture!!!! It's an impressive winter bridge with snow and ice. great evening!

Just as beautiful as yesterdays, just different detail. If you look close enough! lol! It's great! Have a great night!

What a wonderfully constructed bridge! LOL, I like seeing the details of the bridge, its textures and construction. And of course the setting is just gorgeous!

Yay, another stunning capture of this bridge! Those lights are simply stunning, breath-taking! Excellent work once again, Andreas, we could enjoy all 25 shots of them certainly! :)

wow, what a super super work!!!! excellently done!!! :)

again not postwork? this is soooooo awesome ... unbelieveable ... you are such a great spotter of beauty ... I cannot get enough of your great works

Impressive bridge. A fine architectonic solution. Excellent photo.

I did not note nothing.. but calm bushels than cannot compete absolutely with you! You are the best my dearest friend Andreas! I at any rate I am from your part with everything my friendship and my affection! This shot is SUPER!! This image is a really big masterpiece!!I love very much this professional and perfect image!!Great colors!Really well done!V!!Not to get angry you my dearest friend Andreas! the problem is not your that you are a big artist! I would want to be able cite you a piece of the Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri.. but the translation in English for me is very difficult!I wish you a very nice anbd serene evening!A big hug!

now this is superb much better that the other shot well done,can you tell me how cold that water is??? put your toe in:)

The almost mystical, unrealistic quality to it makes it just wonderful!

He he! It's a FINE image. Glad you posted both.

Cool shapes and brrrrrrr it makes me cold:):):)..V

Well...it's a beautiful bridge! I can only find trolls over my bridge....trip, trap, trip, trap...etc. Nice job. :0)

Break all the rules you rebel you!!! I love this shot regardless, love the steel of the bridge against the ice, snow and the moody sky. The atmosphere in this image rocks!!! Even though I haven't commented on your last upload, I am sure both have there own unique qualities and I am sure the other is just as nice as this one! You do your own thing and if you feel like uploading another three images of this bridge you do it!!!

I think this bridge was worthy of two posts. Something about it, the frigid surroundings, lighting etc just make for a gorgeous photo!
