Brian Swinyard	I quite like this image Barrie, particularly the way that you have used the Glowing Edges and Invert to reduce the picture to one of monochrome simplicity. The assymetrical treatment just breaks up the regularity sufficiently to increase the compositional dynamic.

Joan Field	The monochrome effect works very well here. I love your composition and the background giving it almost an etching type feeling. The sienna goes well with the yellow golden colors of the background. Good placement of the leading lines of the roadway and the cables to lead us to the tower.
Rick Perkowski	This image is very well composed with the support to the right of the frame and the cables and traffic on a diagonal to the support.  Your combining the name of the bridge and your tone of the image is very creative.  Very well done.
Anne Swearman	The shape of the bridge and the treatment of it is interesting, but with the whole image being the same tonal range , it would be a bit tricky to understand without the title.  It would have a lot more impact if the sky was dark blue perhaps.
Nancy Springer	Barrie, this is very good.  It almost looks like an architectural drawing.  The colors really lend themselves to the image you’re portraying.  The composition is very good, though I feel a little cropping off the top might be an improvement.  Very nicely done!

S Geological Survey near Denver, CO, and was swept up in the 1996 PSA Denver Convention Exhibition, where he handled the Nature Division slide & print part (400+ slide entries and 40+ (large) print entries. He was active in two camera clubs and the state Council for eight years at this location. He received his APSA about 1963. He moved to Michigan for two years and was active in the Midland Camera Club. He moved to northern California in 1965 and became active in two camera clubs and the local Council. From 1976-1982 he moved through the 'chairs' of the PSA Nature Division, serving as chairman from 1980-1982. In 1983 he received an FPSA, for both his Nature Div. work and continuing service to photography in camera clubs, councils, and numerous judging events from club to International exhibition levels. He became active in the 'electronic lightroom' about six years ago and now all of his prints for local club and council competitions are via a Mac G-4, Photoshop 7 software, and Epson hardware: ink-jet printer (Photo 1200) & flat-bed scanner (3200 photo).
