    The Bandra Worli Sealink, Mumbai

    This is a picture of the Bandra Worli Sealink in Mumbai, India. This bridge has eased the daily commute of citizens in a big way.

    C&C welcome

    Nicely done, very subtle conversion.

    Ashish, this is a fantastic shot. The horizontal lines, the pyramidal shapes of the suspension structure, the clouds; very surreal and mystical. I can see this image printed huge and hung on a wall. Excellent capture, strong work.

    Hi Ashish,

    I see you shot this with a decent camera (Canon 7D) and in RAW, but the histogram is showing 'signs of 8-bit distress', making me wonder if a little more contrast couldn't be extracted while in ACR or PS CC in 16 bit mode?

    It would also benefit from proper downsizing and sharpening before upload to TinyPic - see post #6 in this thread for more on that.

    Great composition; with structure and clouds, as others have mentioned - but I think it could be better even here - it could make a great picture for the architect's office.

    Cheers, Dave

    Many thanks Dave for your thoughts.. i really appreciate it. I was in two minds whether to pull up the foreground a bit more or leave more blended in the current state. I decided to leave it as it is as i wanted a softer look for the image. However, will keep your inputs in mind and try it out.

    Ashish, very nice image - a very evocative rendering that makes it a special image of the bridge - as others have said i am sure the designer would favour this as a large image on his/her wall as an advert of their skill

    Reminds me of the bridge in France, the Millau Viaduct - its not as long but it is taller.
