Bridge over Ballybay Wetlands, Co. Monaghan.

Nice image, maybe a little too much sky? but I like the way the walkway
leads you into the picture, might work well in black and white also.Thanks very much for the feedback. I think you’re right about a monochrome version being interesting. This shot is a little bit too contrasty cause of too much direct sunlight, but in monochrome I think it’s not so noticable and cause of the bridge leading the eye in like you said I think it still looks pretty dynamic.
Here it is in black and white.
I would be inclined to boost the contrast a little more in the B & W version,
I like it though, you could also lose a little bit of the sky, maybe to just the
top of the clouds, nice shot though, well done.to be quite honest i dont think there is enough contrast in the shot for it to work in mono
Thanks again for the feedback, I think y’all are right about black and white lacking in contrast, I tried to recover too many of the shadows I guess. As for the sky shutterbug, I see what you mean about there being a lot of emptiness, but sometimes I like to split my pictures down the middle to give my shots a feeling of calm, so I don’t want to fool about with it anymore.
Here’s another two shots of the same Ballybay Wetlands on a different evening that I hope don’t suffer from the same problems. Let me know what you think….
