I ride at least 1000 km a summer. Although there are many other trails I do ride this one quite often. In the winter there are cross country skiing areas on both sides of this bridge. It's kind of cool to ski across a bridge.
Now I like the look of this bridge although it doesn't compare with the old steel rail way bridge.
I hadn't noticed the clouds in the photo |
It's a hard bridge to photograph as there's not a good angle on it. |
I did get a shot with most of the bridge. |
I'ts a graceful bridge but I prefer the old railway bridge
ReplyDeleteGraceful is a good description.
DeleteYou did fine with your photos of the bridge. Love the skies too.
ReplyDeleteI never noticed or thought of the skies until I was making the post.
DeleteIt is a magnificent bridge. Pretty clouds in the background too.
ReplyDeleteIt shows nicely but it's only about three meters wide. Surprising that you can drive a loaded gravel truck over it.
DeleteThere is something about bridges that are very special : bringing people together, linking distant parts.
ReplyDeleteJust thinking about the meaning of the word bridge can give us quite few ideas.
Deleteglad it is there for you and obviously used a lot! skiing over it would be cool. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a well used bridge and lots of people simply spend time viewing the scene from a great vantage point.
DeleteLovely country you live in and one that can soften the structure of a bridge.
ReplyDeleteI like to put some trees with a photo ,but in this one I couldn't get a vantage point with a clear shot of the bridge.
DeleteIt looks like a modern no frills no nonsense bridge. Very utilitarian.
ReplyDeleteYes, it wasn't built for artistic purposes.
DeleteThanks for sharing your most used bridge, Red. It does look like it does the job it was created for. And if you had not introduced us, I never would have known it existed! :-)
ReplyDeleteThere's also another exact same bridge on the eastern edge of the city.
DeleteThis is quite the bridge and you did a wonderful job of capturing it Red. I can't even imagine skiing across this, mind you I can't imagine even strapping on a pair of skis! lol I love the big white fluffy clouds.
ReplyDeleteI had to work at it to even get a shot . When it was first built the willows hadn't grown up.
DeleteWow, you ride a lot! That's a lovely bridge.
ReplyDeleteI do a minimum of 1000 km per year.
