White River from the College Avenue bridge (2)
After a 3-month absence, I’m going to ease back into posting again. I went through a period of being busy and distracted for a while, and that morphed into not quite knowing where to begin again. I was taking photos during the whole absence but was not processing them. My intentions had been to post them in chronological order, but I’ve decided not to do it that way. The last photos I posted were from Door County, Wisconsin and there are still some from there that I want to post. However, I will mix things up chronologically and will finish adding the Door County material later. The subject matter will include a fair amount of nature as it always does, but there will be some photos from travels including museums and other miscellaneous subjects.
Today I’m posting two photos that were taken a few days ago here in Indianapolis very early on a damp, chilly, slightly foggy morning. Indianapolis is short on stunning natural scenery, so it takes imagination and creativity to think of natural landscape scenes that go beyond simply boring. The White River winds its way through the city, but most of the way residential, retail, commercial and industrial uses take away any resemblance to wild nature. That said, only a couple of miles from where I live, College Avenue crosses the White River at a place where there is a thin line of natural tree cover along both sides of the river despite being in the middle of the bustling neighborhood of Broad Ripple. I drive over the College Avenue bridge frequently and have always thought there are photo opportunities from that bridge. So, these two photos are of the same scene taken from the bridge, one a horizontal and the other a vertical.
