A question to any photography wizards - I really like this composition, but that bridge in the distance is screaming to be much closer to the foreground, is there a way to achieve this?

Like, stepping further back, using a telephoto lens, high f-stop - could it be done or is it impossible?

Try it for yourself. Download the image and crop until the bridge is the size you want. You will loose much of the foreground though. There may be an alternative composition that works, so give it a try.

Most methods will be in effect optical or digital zoom in's so losing the material at the current edges.

I've never had one, but a fisheye lens might do what you want (expand the centre, contract the edges, but keep everything). I expect cleverer photo manipulation suites can do the same - however it will almost certainly look unnatural!

"boring hike"

Posts photos that make me wish I were there.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means!

Either way, please keep posting.
