taken during my holiday trip to sydney. unfortunately i just brought my 70-200mm lens that time so it was a bit difficult to capture the bridge in a whole. i managed to take a couple of photos and stitch them in photoshop. here is the result:
any critiques are welcome. thanks for looking.

I really like the treatment, make me think that it was just finished completion (that sort of era). I also like the lines.

This is a really great photo of a subject I hate
I would even be tempted to crop in from the right hand side to give more power to the structure

thanks for the suggestion chris. the reason i included some space on the right is to give the sense of size of this bridge. i'll try to work on your suggestion.

My thoughts are that the people give dimension

The treatment really gives this image some pop. I am wondering if it would present better with a very thin black line around the border because it is hard to know where the image stops and the white background on this site starts?
Sharpness is fine and good composition with the bridge curves and cars in the background

The feel is good with this image. I like the B&W conversion you have used.
It certainly has that old feel to it. Baring the cars of course.

Yeah, great treatment! Love the sepia+BW tone. Nice lines too. Makes it feel like an old archive shot. Nicely done.
Cheers,
Kamran

Nice shot and i really like the conversion on it .Like kamran said it looks old school but i agree with Willy it needs a border just to seperate it from the page here .
