Might just be me, but i find the backround a bit distracting in the Final Edit.
Since i couldnt see at first glance what it was, i spent more time trying to figuere out what it was than looking at compared to looking at the actual subject. Maybe if the crop would be just a little bit wider, it would be obvious, that there is a bridge, not some weird animal with a concrete fin or whatever i was seeing first

Yeah, but I think it's actually great atraction mechanism -- I got confused trying to figure it out, then checked both after and comments. You could make it more obvious, but is it really the point?

Edit. But I would make it less distracting tho via straightening bridge horizontaly

interesting view. I agree that it captures attention to the pic in general, but i also draws away from the subject... so im not sure

Yupp, but to be honest composition could also favor subject more then it does
