Photographer's Note
Hi TE friends
I present today a different POV of this beautiful old bridge over the Drava river.
In the workshop, we can see the bridge in the afternoon
Enjoy it !
The origin of the city of Maribor is closely linked with the crossing over the river Drava. Thus the greater part of the town’s old history rotates around the river Drava and the bridges over it. Many merchant routes lead through the town, so that the bridge represented in peaceful times a source of income, in times of war it was the cause of different dangers.
Today’s Old Bridge, built between the years 1906 and 1912, was one of the most beautiful bridges in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Olá Aires,
beautiful reflection in the blue hour. The water jets on the bridge are really interesting, I like the way they disturb the mirror image.
Best wishes

Olá Aires,
the result is a wonderful light impression with very strong elements like the blue sky, the bridge with its reflection and the resulting depth and the very beautiful coloured city in the background. Congratulations my friend, very effective capture.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hello Aires.
A very pleasing 'blue hour' photo, with amazingly good definition of the details, and lovely colours. It's a great composition which reveals the lights of the town across the river beneath the arch of the bridge. The quality is very good - with the low ISO you must have used a slow exposure which has turned out very well. Beautiful shot.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Aires,
I looked to both picture, and both pictures are very nice, you know that make of a choice always are very difficult is for my.
But I prefer this image here taken during the blue hour, with a fantastic colour.
Technical excellent depth and perspective, one advice my friend, use a tripod and a longer exposure I think that the results are a lot better, certainly the details.
I enjoy absolutely of your splendid work on TE.
Very well done, TFS.
Best regards,
John.

The "close"-crop/pov makes it a little original and the light management is perfect again. The sharpness is excellent, the water jets soft and lovely... Beautiful.

hello Aires,
you seem to be fascinated by the bridges, and all your photos of them are very good, it certainly feels that you have given some thought to how best to show any particular place. here I like the colours, especially the hint of purple on the bridge itself, it creates a nice contrast with the yellow and red lights framed by the curve of the construction. excellent work, my compliments.
with best regards,
Kristine

overall mood is quite, sereen, yet strong and muschivously musocal. Specially the tall grass on left corner, as if they are wispering abput the merry time people are having on the other corner of the picture (bright lit up full of life).
Aires I also noticed that you are pn the quitter side of the bridge, where life is still and natural (so you are a peace loving man)
When I look at your photo I find it quite beautiful, as it beautifully brudges so many things in one single frame; bridge between time (old bridge in new time, and with lights it shows a bridge in new life), then you have day and night bridging so beautifully. Then you have festivity on one side and peace calm on other...good work.

Hey Aires.
Great picture here! I really like your point of view here as we get a great view of the bridge. Also I feel you have managed the light very well. For me, one of the best things here is the lights of the shops under the first part of the bridge!
Great work!

Wow, a fantastic picture. The blue sky really looks fantastic and allows you to capture all the details of the city's skyline. Very well framed too, with a spire "hiding" underneath one of the arches of the bridge. Those water jets look amazing thanks to the long exposure as well.
