Hi - I'm very much a newbie to photography so dont really know what I am on about! I like this shot and love the framing, but its coming up on my screen as maybe a tad too saturated? This would make a smashing panorama by cropping above the lower field (thus loosing the bright green) and perhaps some of the sky. I envy you your location!

Hi,
Indeed a wider crop would emphasize on the length/width? of the bridge. I also think some editing on the sky to make it more moody would go down a treat. You've got some lovely clouds to express with!
Would be interesting to see a high contrast Mono Conversion too :)
A nice shot.

It's a nice landscape, but not so well composed. The subject (the bridge) is smack dead center and mostly hidden by the trees. Remember that when you take/present a photo, the point of the photo should be clear to the viewer. In this case, what is the point? Is the focus supposed to be the bridge (which is small and overpowered), the water (again, small and hidden), the horizon (hidden by the trees), or the trees themselves? I think, from the shot, you're not quite sure yourself!
I think there's a lot of potential here, though. You should definitely try going back (if you can), and finding perhaps another vantage point.
