This photo was made a B&W in P.S. using channel mixer and selecting monochrome, then adjust the sliders to taste.

Looks more like the infinity bridge.

A road you could loose yourself on.

Great shot. #124398

An excellant picture that would certainly have a good chance of being accepted in UK exhibitions.
I wondered if you croped a section of the sea off the bottom of the print, whether it would make the shot even more dramatic.

I used a cropped version of this image on my business card and it looks very nice but the current dimensions are perfect for my 24x36 prints on canvas.

Fantastic shot Christopher!! #125950

Terri Sprinkle May 26, 2019

This is a beautiful shot! I think the B&W enhances the image, from the depth of the clouds to the drama of the bridge angle. Can't believe you caught this from a kayak - more props to you just for the steady hand! :) #125955

Michael McCook July 17, 2003

This is such a great image. You've done a fantastic job converting it to B&W. I don't think you could have picked a better angle. At first I thought it was a composite of two images...the way the bridge seems to sink into the water. Congratulations! #144566

Amber J. Housey level-classic July 22, 2003

Sorry to bother you again, but I want to tell you that I am very attracted to your photography style. Very nice work on all you have shared here. You deserve recognition as you did on this one. Again, I love the colors you find and capture. Thank you for sharing. #147986

Kathleen K. Parker level-deluxe July 26, 2003

I love the way this looks in b/w.
From your kayak, eh? You must be pretty sure of yourself in it to bring your camera along. I am glad you did! Magnificient shot.
Kathleen #151201

Christopher Del Negro July 26, 2003

Thanks Kathleen,
I kayak once a week, and always bring a camera. You never know what you might capture.
No mishaps yet. #151243

Natasha Ursula Pyle May 20, 2006

Chris,
When I saw this image in the florida gallery, I immediatly recognized it from your business card. Looked at your gallery too. Some nice photos.

Tell me. How do you protect your camera when kayaking? I would like very much to be able to do the same.
