RR Crossings over the Delaware River

Image was taken from the Easton PA. side of the Delaware. The

Lehigh river joins the Delaware just off to the right. Any and all

comments and ratings are always welcome. Thanks for looking.

Great scene Holger, I see there is still a lot of green here so I guess it wasn't taken in November. Like the clear cool foreground water, really adds to the landscape.   AJ

Thanks AJ, you're right this was taken near the end of September I believe and I could not get back there for a fall shot. Thanks again for look and write.

Holger, I wonder what you could get by getting at an angle of say 45 degrees to the right to give it a more diagonal look. You have a foreground, middle ground and a background. In this shot the foreground gets a lot of attention because there is so much water in it. Having the bridge up in the sky helps bring attention to it as the contrast behind it is more pronounced. Maybe even a lower angle would be even stronger. Just some ideas to spur your imagination.

Thanks Dave, for your comments and ideas. This is an area near where my sister lives, so I plan on returning and will keep your suggestions in mind. That's a helpful critique.

Hi Holger,

  Wonderful scene with beautiful details.  When you go back try several angle's of this scene, it look's like a very interesting place to photograph.  Take care, Patsy

This looks like a very pleasant place to spend some time.  I like the realness of the scene, it's like being there.  Good shot... Mike

Patsy, Mike let me just say I appreciate your support and steady stream of helpful comments. Thank you for looking at this image. See you soon.

Holger - Nice oneI like the warm light that you had when you photographed it.  I was not there so not sure if my idea is possible.

For me the bridge is the main subject and now you have to care of the foreground. I would like to get the camera down to about 2 feet higher than those rocks at the bottom. Now that may not have been possible. Or you did not have water boots.   Or this is an area known for lions and crocodiles (*_*).

In any event, this is a fine image what you have here and no two photographers will ever capture the same scene exactly the same.

All the best and thanks for your recent visit.

A beautiful result with very nice lighting and details, Holger!

Ruud, Thank you for your visit, always glad to hear from you.

Tony, I like your idea and think it would be effective. Thank you for your continued support and excellent suggestions. 

Holger

Janegbert, Thanks for your visit and the kind words.

Pierre, I'm always glad to hear from you and I appreciate your observations and critiques. Thank you my friend.

Holger

While the suggestions are most helpful, I am glad that you shared this one  just the same. I imagine in the Winter it would make a beautiful shot, however I do not know how safe the shoreline would be. I hope you have a good visit with your sister next time you visit!!

Thanks Gail, it's always great to hear from you.

Well seen composition. All elements in right place!

Very effective composition Holger! Well done! Warm regards, Rob
