This is a wonderful photograph! A few things I noticed:
The lighting is alright, not the best because the trees cast such awkward shadows, but it's not really bad either. I think you should go to this bridge at sunset, sunrise, or else a darker time of day for different effects on the lighting. A dark time of day would capture a spookier feeling, if that's what you want.
I really like the angle and perspective of this. We can easily relate to this photograph because the angle is nearly eye level. The photo is also very natural-looking, with all the leaves and such residing on the bridge - another way we can relate to the photo.
You could try tons of angles for this one - even in the post processing stages you could rotate the image a bit and put a nice frame around it.
I hope I wasn't too harsh, this really is a gorgeous photo!

First, thank you so much for your generous feedback. <3
And I agree ... the lighting is wonky because of the location ... See, the whole place was surrounded by these amazingly tall red trees. But it was also hard for light to reach this bridge, because it's placed in what would be a huge hole sorrounded by trees, basically. As you walk down the given path, you descend lower and lower. It's an archery spot, safely away from people. But the red bark and leaves created a beautiful red glow everywhere.
I'm very attracted by red hues, and I wanted to capture that moment, where this beautiful red glow was, where it would most likely not return until next summer. Which would explain my silly stubbornness to shoot from different angles! And thank you so very much for all of your wonderful advice. I will attempt to try different angles. <3
