before reading your notes, I was surprised that you found such an old bridge in Greece; lol;
what I like are the benches who allow 2x3 people to enjoy the view and look at the people crossing this 18th century bridge;

    Thank you so much for the lovely review Fred. They have old bridges in Greece as well. LOL
Comment from ArtistCharles


This is a lovely, almost melancholy, image of this old bridge. I love that you have included the small waterfall downstream of the bridge. Good focus and detail. Nice exposure level. Interesting angle for the shot. Well captured.

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel


This bridge seems not to be in use anymore and rather has become a point of attraction looking at the benches
excellent choice of view point - excellent framing - I think your angle and distance is perfect to show the old powerful construction of the bridge and the placement far out of traffic - your exposure, contrast and lighting are genuine and natural
a nice, calm well balanced picture with interesting content and teaching factors, well seen, well done, Annie

    Thank you so very much for the lovely review Regina. The bridge is actually in full use and actually the entrance into the village.

Annie,
A beautiful picture of this eight arched 18th century stone built bridge crossing the River Usk at Crickowell Powys, in Wales framed by the trees growing along the river banks the wooden benches at the view point add an interesting point of view. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

'Good Show',Annie!
I've never been to Wales so I wouldn't know if this was the longest Welsh stone bridge or not but I know that's a fine looking picture of it that you've presented us with! : D

This beautiful image of Crickhowell Bridge almost looks like a painting.
I really like how the bench seats are included in the foreground giving us a glimpse over to the large stone bridge. The people walking on the bridge give us a perspective of how large and long this bridge is. Great capture!

Well I have to tell you Annie that this photo made me lazy. I was working outside with the plants and Koi pond and it was hot and I decided to take a break. I came inside and decided to check FAR. Well here is your picture and I immediately decided that I would rather be there, sitting on the bench relaxing and enjoying the view. Of course I would be having a nice cold beer and savoring the environment.

Consequently I don't want to go back outside to finish what I was doing. If I could get a good excuse to not go back out I would take it!

Lovely scene Annie and Oh so relaxing and a great place for quiet meditation.

Great work Annie ~ Steve

OK. Back outside! No rest for the weary. Thanks for the respite.

This is a nice place with a great view. I like those nostalgic benches. The bridge is impressive and seems a masterpiece of 18th century engineering. The landscape is perfectly composed. The benches draw our eyes into the photo and lead us along the bridge. The colors are realistic. The photo has good depth and is well balanced and framed.

You have such a wonderful eye for composition, Annie. The angle and juxtaposition of the chairs and bridge are perfect photographic artistry. Wonderful natural lighting and color plus great detail top off an excellent shot. Enjoyed your notes too. Ed.
