Photographer’s Note

The 'Spider Bridge' in Sun City.

Looks a lot scarier than it really is...

The sun was up, reflections of bright light off the water, patches of shade provided by the trees, made for a challenging exposure. I struggled quite a bit, hope I got it right though...

Maybe an idea of how those poor little bugs feel! :-)

Perfect POV. A very interesting shot. Bridge shots are very nice as they lead the eye into the shot so well. Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic shot Costa. Has a feel of being right out of a story book. I like the angle as the bridge seems to go on for quite a while. Very enchanting feel.

Hi Costa,

Yes it tells a nice little story. I think you've done well with exposure as you mention in the mottled sunlight - especially if you held 1/8 sec in the hand whilst taking it!

Cheers
Chris

Hi Costa,

The image has a great depth, the symmetrical effect of the bridge is very interesting and leads to the glance until the end of the photography, the light well is balanced and the colours have a perfect intensity to heighten the contrasts. TFS

Regards
José
