I've always liked the complicated, intricate look of old truss bridges. Nice shot!
Love bridges, wonderful shot
Great shot awesome POV wonderful camera work!!
it reminds of a movie
Excellent POV. I wonder if it needs an inspection and definitely a coat of paint.
wonderful shot - we had an old train trestle that was constructed like this. it had to be replaced.
Great view and capture!
Nice photo. We get to see the entire complexity of the bridge. I wonder what its weight bearing capacity is (considering its age)? Keep up the good work! :-)
Looks like Meccano!
very wonderful shot
Shining shot.
Excellent capture.
It is an attention-grabbing picture.
I have no idea about any of the questions asked. I assume there is some sort of maintenance since there appear to be areas of patched road surface. It is open and if have seen 18-wheelers crossing it.
Terrific shot! You got just the right angle.
At its opening it was the longest bridge in Arizona!
Nice bridge. The only Gillespie I knew is the chemist Ronald Gillespie who discovered the Gillespie law and I was surprised to discover that he is still alive. Great capture.
I like these old steel girder bridges and taking pictures of them. great capture
