Thanks, Karen. I appreciate the nice comment.

I was waffling between that shot and this one.

I still may swap it out. Anyone have any thoughts about which one is better?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,

I like the first shot better, but both are very nice. The color and strong lines sure make the first shot wonderful.

Hi Tom,
It looks like you did have a tough decision to make. They are both good but the first seems to have more "pop" with the colors.

Tom:

I like the first one too, especially for the colours. These old bridges evoke the notion of ancient animal skeletons. Best of luck!

Cheers,
Rich

The first is stronger and dynamic, the is static but the doorway view an interesting subject and color contrast, but to my eyes, at least as cropped, not as strong an image. It my be more interesting is viewed much larger.

Good stuff Tom.

I like them both for different reasons as I'm sure you do too.

Thanks, Karen and Mike. I have a tendency to go with the more subtle image (the second one) but they often don't do well in this forum. Besides, my wife talked me into the bridge picture too, which seems to be the consensus here.

Thanks again for the input. I think I'll just run with the popular choice.
