Super angle up to the bridge. I like that the green of the few small trees adds to the color in the others. All around terrific image.

The rustic covered wooden bridge blends into the woods so well. Is that fence on the right falling down or leaning over a little? I like that little tree that is still green it stands out...Nice view from the Wildwood JB

Well composed with the angle from which you have taken this JImbob. The bridge looks great especially with that background.

I like the composition and how the walkway curves and leads your eye to the bridge.

Wonderful...no cars! Doesn't seem the bridge would hold up under auto traffic, but it's nice to be able to avoid them when possible. Nice shot of this old bridge, Jimbob.

Are buggy rides an acceptable means of transit through the park?
A lovely looking scene and nice lead-in with the fence rail curving into the photo. Very nicely composed scene with lovely fall colours. Good work!

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick. Henri Cartier-Bresson

This is superb Jimbob! I just love these covered bridges and you found the perfect perspective to this one! The winding wooden planks and wall set off this scene well! Beautiful! :)Ami
