Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Image:Hernando de Soto Bridge Memphis.jpg

 
Original - Hernando de Soto Bridge and the Memphis skyline photographed from the Arkansas side.
Reason
This is is a superb view of the Hernando de Soto Bridge in Memphis, Tennessee. Photogaphed apparently in the early evening, it shows the bridge in a heavy haze while the setting sun casts a perfect shadow on the Mississippi River. Somehow the shadow and bridge, taken together, suggest the body of a guitar, so emblematic of Memphis musical culture. The work does not appear to have been to have been photoshopped or otherwise altered, though it may have been cropped.
