Hello Hugo,
I took your advice re: saturation.
It made for a much better photograph, many thanks for your help.
Respectfully,
Tom

Hmmm...
Spoke too soon. I looked at the image again, and it seems to be a deception of the eye; only the left wall of the Brooklyn bridge seems to be a bit askew, but the others seem to be well vertically aligned. Strange, must be the feel created by the just off horizontal bolt, attaching the bracket to the main suspension cable.. Interesting!
Cheers,
Hugo

Hi Tom,
Nope, I realise perfectly well that sliding the pin would be humanly impossible. But if you'd look at the bridge head of the Brooklyn bridge and the buildings in the background, there's a small but distinct clockwise rotation in the image.
Cheers,
Hugo

Hello Hugo,
Thank you for your thoughts and recommendations.
I have difficulty with the colors for I have a red/green color vision defect,oh well there is always B&W photography.
Regarding the tilt do you speak of the hanging cable slid to the right on it's retaining pin?
If so that is all to do with loads and stresses upon the bridge itself, those hanging cables slide back and forth as the structure of the bridge itself moves. The bridge is "alive" constantly expanding and contracting, it is under the command of the climate.
I so enjoy hunting for something new on well trod ground. Be well!

Hi Tom,
A very original approach to an often photographed subject. The details have been very well captured too. A pity about the tilt, though, it's quite obvious, eventhough it isn't that big. Also, I think the saturation could use a small boost to increae the impact of this photo a bit. Interesting shot, and a very creative approach!
Cheers,
Hugo
