I'm posting this for Country. He/She was so disappointed in her bridge, and she says she's trying to work in manual. I wanted to show her what could be done with manual on the camera and the lens.

The most important thing about taking this pic, country, is that I got there at the right time of the day. Your settings don't matter if you don't have the right light.

ISO 100 - It's my default ISO :-)
F22 - but F16 and up may have worked too.
1 second exposure
Tripod is mandatory
Manual focus - get that first 3rd of the pic in focus in your view finder at the higher fstops, and the rest will fall into place. You will see it fall into place in your view finder.

Nightsky, you did very well. I like that you set up very well for this shot thinking of DOF, lighting and excellent focus. Intentional photo taking is an art and a thought promoter.
The result shows your work very nicely.

That is a perfect-ly beautiful picture. It makes the viewer want to walk right in and see what's around the bend.

Pretty shot. The bridge draws you in to the path beyond. Nicely composed.
