Golden Gate Bridge

Very well composed. You got a perfect sky to act as a canvas for the richly-coloured bridge. Seems like your model is the only soul about....but I think we know better. Nice work.

nice comp, although I suggest the use of a polarizer to improve saturation

Thanks for the comments. Regarding polarising filters, I know for many photographers it's an article of faith that they are an essential accessory for landscape work, but in my experience I've seen more pictures damaged by them than enhanced by them (my Berlitz 'Discover Scandinavia' guidebook has some prime examples).

Images with reflections are invariably more attractive than images without them, and saturation can be more precisely controlled using any picture-editing software. With polarising filters saturation is often achieved at the expense of tonality and contrast. They are over-priced and over-rated. Save your money! As for this photo, I aimed for a natural appearance without making the easy mistake of over-saturating it in Photoshop.

... a little overexposed

A common shot of the bridge and the sky is blue with no interest. Not up to your better work which I like very much.

Hi Trevor! Better I avoid giving you ratings about originality....right? Regards.Anna
