The braided Waitaki River flows for 130 miles from New Zealand's Southern Alps to Glenavy (close to where this photo was taken) where it enters the Pacific Ocean. The bridge is over half a mile long and is part of State Highway 1. Waitaki is the Maori word for Weeping Waters. Taken with Canon 450D. Thank you for looking. Comments are very welcome.

A textbook-perfect composition with the foreground detail, off-centre crossing diagonals; and even the lone tree far-left adds a good balance.

"Weeping Waters" Look great with the way you have composed this image. The blue colour overall and the shrubs and boulder in front all together make this a very nice image.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Nothing to cry about in this shot unless beauty brings you to tears LE. I like bridges and rivers. This is good for my appetite. Wonderful vantage point.
