Description
Here is a different view of Fernbridge; a bit more imposing. There's something about being under a bridge that's so big, you hear the roar and the vibrations of the cars driving over it. It can be a little unnerving. Riding a bike over it can be even MORE unnerving, especially when you have a logging truck right on your tail. That's when you find out just how fast you can pedal!!!
********The bridge was built nearly 100 years ago in 1911, and quickly gained fame at the time as the world's largest all-concrete span. It stretched nearly 1320 feet or a quarter of a mile across the federally designated wild and scenic Eel River, once abundant with salmon.

A very nice view of an interesting structure!
An even more imposing look at this bridge, Marilyn. I love the way the light catches all of the 'ages-old' weathering of its concrete surface. Talk about salmon, I love it baked with a bit of brown sugar and marinated ahead of time with balsamic vinegar. The sugar carmelizes and so--- good!
Excellent capture!! Great light on the bridge!!
It certainly looks very regal Marilyn, thank you my dear lady for sharing it with us and of course for the double dedication. I am honoured. I see here on the left what looks like the cable for the lights up above, the first few feet heavily armoured to prevent vandalism. What looks like lines, almost brick like, would most likely be from the re-enforcing and shuttering to keep the concrete contained until it cured. Thanks very much for the information as to its build date and span. Just one question? Who ate all the Salmon? lol. Excellent capture and narrative, and just has to be a fav. Bravo!!!!!
Very cool Marilyn!!! I find bridges fascinating as well :-) Have a nice Weekend! :-) Cheers
Beautiful work,
I really like your POV and composition here! Great pic!!
this is such an impressive bridge marilyn and again an excellent capture of it .thanks for the mention :o).. mick
powerful image
Excellent work,
I like bridges too. this is a wonderful shot here
Terrific POV, DOF and perspective depicted, along with fine clarity, lighting and textural effects in this great capture, Marilyn. Not exactly the Bridge on the River Kwai, but much more impressive.
Marilyn, this is Fantastic!!!!! I mean, your other stuff rocks, but this rocks, pops and does a little shimmy too! The colors and varied textures are very rich and I love the light you've captured. Yeah, it still looks a bit like a Czech bridge too, right down to the wonderful hints of weathering and corrosion. This is a fantastic capture, but its the rust stains from exposed rebar or something that I'm particularly drawn to. And this is definitely one of my favorites.
a bold and imposing sight. Cool postwork.
Nice tones and POV. Excellent shot. Aloha
You know, this thing looks massive. Nic saturation in post on this. GIves it an almost surreal quality to it. Ahola
