Description
This is looking east across the Eel River. I live just slightly to the south, about half a mile. When conditions are right, the water can get as high as just below the roadbed; Fernbridge has survived several major floods. For a bridge built in the early 1900's, that's a pretty good record!!

Great shot.....and talk about great minds thinking alike! Did you see my last two posts!!!
Lovely shot Marilyn and you do love to get under things, Bridges, piers etc lol now where is the troll I want to see a troll :^)
Such a powerful composition!
Very nicely done!
cool shot . got to watch out there
Agreed. That is one big sturdy hunk of concrete, Marilyn. And I believe I detect some love-struck bit of graffiti down at the lower base.
This section of the bridge makes a very strong statement and probably gonna be there for another 100 years to come, judging by the floods come and gone; but there is no guarantee with the interference of human nature. Very stark background...now, bring on the trolls! BB
Did you see Denise?
Perfect perspective, I love bridges and this photo!!
impressionnant !!
(Not sure what Tara's joke meant, "did you see denise?" Is she known to like this bridge? Or is it that she shoots a lot of bridges, lol...) Anyway, another of your daring compositions that you do as regularly as breathing: It takes guts to make a shot with all that shadow at top, moving from the light on the bridge's bottom to a big slab of black against the sky (!), but that's one the reasons we come to your gallery: You just don't kow-tow to normal things like horizons, sky being lighter than earth, etc etc. And it's a big imposing vision, monumental actually. And the bridge melds nicely with the land behind it, as if it's part of that land. That's a big river, and it's obviously pretty fierce, yet the bridge here is quite imposing and it dominates the water and land behind it. It looks like an interrupted god. Terrific piece, Marilyn, and shows that while you shoot so quietly, you're moving mountains with your fingertips when no one's looking...
