Busy Bridge
I did a post a couple of days ago that featured a view I had sitting on the rocks in the bay while the boys fished for Stripers.
I mentioned that I would show the view when I looked to the left while sitting in that same spot.
It is a bridge that stretches across the bay - actually it is two bridges.
The one nearest us is the newer one. The one with all the interesting arches and fancy metal work is the old one that is no longer in use.
I believe the old one can be used for foot traffic, but the highways surrounding it make it hard to get to it by walking. Years ago after the new one was built, I remember seeing people fishing on the old one, but I haven't seen any in the last couple of years.
I can remember they were only allowed to fish towards the ends of the bridge as this is a busy thoroughfare for boats and there couldn't be fishing lines hanging in the way as they went under.
I used my kit lens on this shot as it has the widest angle of any of my lenses. It was taken on the 28mm setting, and it still didn't capture the whole structure.
The sky was absolutely gorgeous that day - Mother Nature certainly put on a show - the beautiful clouds and water were the finishing touches!
That's quite a marvelous feat of engineering.
ReplyDeleteLove the clouds in the first photo - they look sort of "drippy".

ReplyDeleteThe clouds are what got my attention also although bridges are fascinating.
ReplyDeleteI'm paying closer attention to the information on your site now that I'm learning my camera - thanks for including some very pertinent information.
Wow, Kathy. The reflections on the surface of the water are terrific. Great image.
