This is a very nice image..is it the Cox Ford or the Narrows bridge, by chance? I was just browsing the Covered Bridge Festival's site today and thought those would be gret photo opps.Did you use a circular polarizer to achieve the deep blue sky color?
Love the colors and composition. Reflections in water are always very pleasing to me.
Keep up the good work and good luck in the contest. #1421012

Hi Terry. Thank you for stopping by.This is the Cox Ford Bridge. I had to look through my files to find another angle and luckily I had one with the name of the bridge on it.
I did not use a polarizer on this image. It is a 3 exposure HDR image. Luckily that day the sky was pretty blue, but merging the 3 exposures really helped it out a lot. #9787936

Thanks for the prompt feedback.Which software do you use for the HDR work? I just read someone else's review of Photomatix Pro - sounded pretty simple. #9788140
