Very nice photograph!
I love the richness in the colors of it. The bridge and water, with its surroundings are a nice contrast.
Thanks for sharing!

A beautiful and well taken & positioned photograph of this sacred bridge, capturing the colour not only of the bridge, but of the surroundings too with great clarity and sharpness - great DOF and and almost fairytale scene you've caught here, great work.

I felt like the angle you chose to take this showing a the earth tone colors, textures and then there is that POP of red from the beautiful designed bridge.
Nice Capture Fred ;)

How truly magnificent this bridge looks. It is so bright and colorful. The designs on the ends look like they are carved out of wood.
What a beautiful place to find peace and calm in this world. A lovely scene for sure.

How fortunate to be able to travel to this country! I like the way you composed this shot, with the bridge so high in the frame. The ROF is also a good choice. The foreground just slightly less focused than the bridge, which avoids distraction.

A very beautiful landscape photo presented here! Your image has a very good classical composition. Exposure and sharpness are good. Somehow this shot does capture the essence of the East!

I LOVE that they've painted it red sg! What a marvelous shot of color over the river there.

Wonderful crisp sharp focus. It is all so well detailed...from the bridge down through the stone walls to the rocks in the river in the distance. It is well exposed and colors are nice and natural looking.

Your notes, as always, are perfect sg. So glad you included them here. Quite an interesting history to this lovely red bridge.
