    This is a cool perspective. Straight on but it works. I think BW really brings out the textures of the rocks and bridge. Nicely done!

    Of all your photos this is my favourite. The Bridge leads your eyes nicely down the length of the path across the bridge to the interisting trees in the background. Great photo. Black and white was a great choice for this shot as it has heightened the atmosphere of the whole shot (if that makes sense). Great work.

  • Tara Sheffer-A... replied

    Thanks so much Joshua! I really appreciate that! You obviously put a lot of thought into that comment.

    This is nice. The trees give this image a kind of rawness. Maybe the rawness of nature beyond the bridge? I don’t know lol. But I like it.

    Very striking image with its starkness and the fact that the current euphemism for dying is “crossing” or “crossing over”.
