High Contrast B&W
The main goal of this picture is to emphasize the weighty, heavy metal
construction of the bridge. The high contrast treatment helps underscore
the bridge's strength, and the grittiness of its parts suggests its industrial
roots... all in contrast to its overall beauty, which is retained by the tower
in the background on the left. Unlike the other pictures, high contrast is
the goal here, so the red filter is used as well as the polarizer to make
sure reflected light does not bleed into the darker areas of the image.
The lens is 17mm, f/3.5 at 4 seconds.
