    Skye Bridge

    I've tried to photograph the Skye Bridge plenty of times and never got anything worth keeping.

    However this might be a keeper. Last day of holiday and it had been overcast and drizzling most of the day.

    We were in Kyle and just heading back to Broadford when we noticed the cloud break over the Cullins behind the bridge.

    I do like that but I think the bridge is a little lost - what about trying to pull the bridge up a bit and lighten it, it could work well

        Yep see what you mean though probably looks better on Flickr. I'll have a play later.

          I had a look on flickr and still think it needs pulling up a tad - shouldn't be too hard ( says a man thats hopeless with PS )

              Bit of rough edit so will have another go if its considered better.

                Much better now that the subject matter is more obvious, like that a lot now.

                      Re: Skye Bridge

                      Really a very nice composition and much better on Flickr.
                      It's always a challenge getting light into anything that is basically in silhouette and I think the tweaked image is much better although I'd like to see the spit of land in the foreground lifted a little too as it has such nice colour.

                      Cheers,
                      John
