Excellant detail and I like the use of B&W, Christine! I've been on this bridge a few times but not under it. #1167051

Hey Christine! I think I've crossed this bridge many times, but how did you get under it? Isn't there water below it? This image is great! I think you made a good choice with the B&W! Wonderful lines and design! Fabulous POV and capture! :) #7840250

David Pratt August 15, 2009

Wow! Awesome texture and lines. B & W is the perfect selection for this! #7849726

Thanks Ken, it's a very cool structure, and very fun to wander around underneath! I'm waiting for a nice foggy day next, to see what it'll look like....

Thanks Lorna... yes, there's water but there's also a walkway for watching the boats and ships going under the lift bridge next to it :-) Glad you like it!

Thanks Dave, I tend to lean towards B&W for structured shots almost every time. It seems to be perfect for emphasing line and contrast.
