The composition is great with the triangular lines everywhere. However, the tonal separation just isn't there in the foreground and midground. I think a b/w adjustment layer and a travel through the presets would prove beneficial. |

.The lush greenery surmounted by the viaduct works
well. The richness may
be enhanced by going a touch lighter and adding some more
contrast. |

Excellent capture of the clouds and sky. Good tonal
range. Perhaps a bit much of scrub brush and grass in the
foreground. I do feel like I’m right there, standing in the tall
grass with you, though. |

I feel that the "dark" tree bushes in the front of the viaduct are distracting and preventing the viewer a really great view. How about if you cropped the foreground out and made the trees the foreground. That's exactly what I did in the edit. Please take a look. I hope you like it. |

Interesting subject. I thought it seem a little flat, so I made a few adjustments. I cropped the image, to look more like a panorama, and flipped it so that the bridge so that it seem to rise from left to right. With a layer mask I darkened the sky. I emailed the image to you to have a look. |

An
interesting subject for Monochrome. You technical work and
conversion to monochrome work are well done. The viaduct is the
primary subject in this image. You might consider cropping about
1/3rd of the bottom to make this more of a panorama and put more
emphasis on the viaduct. |
