Under the Lovering Avenue Bridge

I got to this bridge a bit too late. The sun had already gone down and there was very little color in the frame.

I was trying to capture more of the curved path leading into the tunnel, but the ground beneath me was very icy (you can see the light reflecting off a sheet of ice along the walkway), preventing me from backing up too far without slipping. I broke up the horizon 50/50 to highlight the smoothness of the snow-covered ground slowly transitioning into the straight lines of the stone bridge and finally into the rough, complex texture of the tree branches in the background.

I would appreciate as much criticism (negative as well as positive) that you can afford.
