Kazura Vine Suspension Bridge II Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is a different angle view of the Kazura Vine Suspension Bridge. I did posted a view on the bridge in one of my previous posts with WS #1 and WS #2 to that post. This is a different angle view. Please see the notes in that post regarding the bridge.

There was a snow storm in that area a few days before our visiting. There was a light snow during the day we visited there.

I took this picture in the middle of another iron bridge across the gorge. In the WS, I have posted a picture with a reverse angle as this picture.

Hi Wes,
Excelent guideline note and post references. I like very much your angle approach and enquadrement view of the moment in a not so well weather friendly conditions. I notice a little blur or not so focused capture but the composition is excelent and this is a fine picture that you share with us about your interesting and informative Travelogue. Good light handling and composition. Best to you and TFS.

Hi Wes,
Clearly you made the right choice with the photo you posted. The light is much better. I just recieved the email about your post, but Fernando still beat me here and I still agree with his comments. The color and depth of field are wonderful, I just want to explore that canyon. As I'm working on sharpness for my own photos, I analyzing pictures relative to sharpness. I'm guessing most of the fuzziness was the relatively long shutter speed. I also wonder if your camera is set to focus on the nearest object since the limbs in the foreground are sharpest. : ) Pat

The overall impression of the landscape with the suspension bridge in the middle is good. However, the details seem to me somewhat fuzzy.

Hi Wes,
Very nice composition & PoV. And I agree with other critiquers that depth's very good too. However, technically it's not excellent - it's not quite sharp enough and bit out of focus.
But now I learn that Japan has bridges like this and that's the important thing! TFS.

That looks like a very dangerous bridge! Well captured!

alvaraalto (5305) 2006-03-14 17:19

Hi Wes,
I think we need bridges like this to reach each other even in difficult circumstances. So we can survive even the snowstorm.

Wes when you return to post a photo showing a different angle it really helps to see the big picture at this bridge. You chose a very good angle here. Nice details rendered and a pleasure to view this photo!!

jjbach (9111) 2006-03-14 18:10

Hi Wes,
Nice to see that this historic bridge is so well kept.Good overlooking pov and the person on the bridge is a great detail.

really nice shot of this bridge here, it looks really old, which is suprising because things in Japan are pretty new, well done

singuanti (15240) 2006-03-14 22:14

Hey Mr. Wes. Yes this is the sort of bridge that might give me the creeps going over. I think this is the best one by far. It's a little busy but the stream bed does help keep order by acting as a leading line. Well done Wes.

pablominto (41676) 2006-03-15 2:08

Hi Wes,
Ahhhh...! Interesting capture of this awesome construction!
Your POV gives a good impression of the setting, and some fine lines to take my eye further down the valley...
Greetings,

Hi Wes, Another beautiful scenery from you. Can't wait to visit Japan later this year. Well Done !

jrj (34779) 2006-03-15 9:12

Interesting setting for the bridge in the very rough landscape. Nice work in the saturated little underexposed variant that is good for this photo.

xavshot (63329) 2006-03-15 13:17

Bonsoir Wes
très belle photo avec un POV excellent pour nous montrer ce "pont" impressionnant. Faut avoir confiance ;o)
Bravo

very nice angle and composition, Wes
nice inclusion of the man for dimention reference

Emile (20177) 2006-03-15 16:24

Hola Wes.
I just came back from my vacation and no doubt that I'm quite behind with your pictures and critiques but I will catch up.
This is another great shot of your trip to Japan. Very original picture, with very good POV and compo. As always good sharpness and colors contrast.
Well done. TFS.

ChrisJ (70485) 2006-03-16 3:51

Hi Wes

I like the high pov overlooking the rustic suspension bridge & the added graphism from the snow. Fantastic work!

Cricri (44068) 2006-03-16 9:01

Hi Wes,
Un excellent POV, sur ce pont impressionant, bien le WS :1, trés beau contraste des couleurs,
trés belle image
Amitiés

pitai (3925) 2006-03-16 10:46

hello wes, impressive view. the bridge really combines perfectly with that natural environment. kind of rustic. the rocks on the river are huge. and the people helps to give an idea of the scale. very nice, wes. TFS. gabriel

Jeppe (18623) 2006-03-16 14:47

Hi Wes - Thanks for this great view of a special bridge - I like the sight of people to give us the best image of this special place - Thanks for the extra photos as well - great jobs indeed.

Regards Jeppe

Stepan (27175) 2006-03-16 15:06

Reminds me a bridge in Vietnam !
Impressive and vertiginous. The pov is good to understand the scale and the whole place.

Hi Wes
Impressive bridge in the jungle
Nice POV

I seem to have somehow missed your latest photos Wes. I love how the v of the rope bridge ecoes the v of the valley. I'm not usually too bothered about heights but this looks a bit scary.

Bonjour Wes,
je suppose que cette rivière doit considérablement gonfler lors de certaines intempéries.
Il faut des fois pointer son appareil vers le bas pour découvrir des choses moins souvent photographiées.
Un excellent cadrage et un moment bien choisi, quand ce pont est utilisé.
BIen à toi.
Daniel.

mumek (17528) 2006-03-27 6:37

Good morning Wes!
Very nice capture of the bridge and the valley. The scenery is well framed by the trees. Lovely natural colours. Thanks for sharing another interesting scenery from Japan.
best regards
