Newport Bridge
A grade II listed structure, the Tees Newport Bridge was originally constructed in 1934 and was designed to lift up to allow boats to pass through on the River Tees underneath. To celebrate its 80th birthday it recently had a repaint in its original grey and red colours, not that you may see them in this photograph as it also had a new LED lighting system installed which allows it to be lit up in an array of colours.
With all of the steel and its hulking presence it is almost reminiscent of something out of a space sci-fi movie.
As a photographer this is what appeals to me about this image: The patterns in the girders, the rainbow colours running down the sides of the uprights and the patterns the shadows make on some of the blue beams.
