Floating Bridge

This could have been posted in M&N since it's straight from the camera and simply an effect of using a telephoto, but it has such a graphic look to it that I thought I'd throw it in PA. Thanks for looking

Nikon D7100 300mm f4 + 1.7X TC HH
f/20
1/250s
ISO 250

Full Frame, no adjustments other than a little tonal work

*For those familiar with Long Island, this is the Robert Moses Bridge, as seen from Bayport across the frozen Great South Bay

Excellent, Luke. Fantastic color and the effect of the atmosphere and water on the bridge is, though natural, somewhat surreal. Good eye and good decision to reach long to compress the scene for effect.

Very unique image, and I like the effect. I would consider a pretty big crop from the sky--maybe halfway from the top--- so the horizon is higher and our eyes are drawn right to the bridge. Has a surreal quality that appeals.
