The Dom Luís I Bridge, or Luís I Bridge, spans the River Douro and links the City of Porto with Vila Nova de Gaia. Although I've been here many times I'd not really got any shots of this that I was happy with and for some reason I'd never shot it at night, so this trip that was high on the agenda.

 

As it happened I got into Porto about 2100 from London and just headed straight out to get some night shots.

 

I had a good few hours shooting various things around here and this vantage point involved a bit of a fence climb to get to where I wanted to be, thankfully that all went off without incident and I was able to take my time getting the images.

 

Even shooting with a wide angle lens it was difficult to convey the size and sense of awe of this piece of architecture so I've gone for a panorama to give a bigger view of it's surroundings, shooting Cities at night was something I haven't done for a long time and I found it seriously enjoyable!
