Breakwater 2

Description

Here I wanted to capture the Verrazano-Narrows bridge as being part of the scenery. My intention was to diminish the importance of the bridge and instead expose the waterscape and rocks on the shore as being equally part of the scene. The breakwater is always a good addition.
I have seen many pictures of this exact bridge. While it is a fascinating structure, I could not help, but to add a different view of the bridge. It is the longest suspended structure on the east coast and its massive. Thus shrinking the bridge, with distance not Photoshop mind you, was an idea that I had.
Further discussion; I have also seen photographs where the bridge served as a background for a shot, a family photo, for example, but in this photo I wanted to keep the aspect ration equal between all the described objects; the bridge, the water and the rocks.
