hawkesholayout,

Great depth.

I have to make a backdrop for my layout and create some depth. For now the only thing I can somewhat get away with is going black and white to get rid of the look of a wall in the BG.

Just another for the week

I'd love to see other shots of your bridge.

Randy, That's going to look

Superb detail on that bridge. I especially like the composition of the last shot. How did you get that nice soft focus-like look?
