The use of filters, whether they are on the camera or on the computer, can be an art form in themselves.  Knowing when and what to use to alter an image can make or break a composition.  However they should not be relied on to make a week illustration strong.  They should alter the photograph to reflect the photo-artist’s vision of the subject.

The photograph we have here has had a number of computer filters applied with skill.  This photo-artist is experimenting and learning how to manipulate images so they can become a good rendition of antique photographs.  I particularly like the trace of clouds that fill the upper right of the frame.  They act as a cover holding the eye in the foreground. 

The bridge itself has nice lines but lacks drama as a subject.  With the top of the bridge cutting the composition in half a long a near horizontal line the photograph appears stagnant.  Perhaps a little different angle would strengthen the graphics and add to the interest.
