Took my life into my own hands shooting this in the middle of a busy intersection. Oh, wait....
No, no, listen. It usually is a REALLY BUSY street! I promise! Still, somehow, at the precise moment I took this shot on Sunday afternoon, the Wells Street Bridge was strangely quiet and empty.
The start of the Autumnal colours in the Roe Valley Country Park a few weeks ago - this image is of the Old Largy Bridge, also know as the Green Bridge or Dogleap Bridge.
Un believable news this morning waking up and hearing this bridge has been struck and is no longer standing. We just went over this bridge on Sunday afternoon. Use it quite a lot.
Hopefully those that were on the bridge have not been killed. Prayers for them.
This will have major impact to Baltimore on many levels. Travel, shipping, etc ...
The Karl Theodor Bridge, commonly known as the Old Bridge, is a stone bridge in Heidelberg, crossing the Neckar River. It connects the Old City with the eastern part of the Neuenheim district of the city on the opposite bank.
The Ha’penny Bridge is the best known of Dublin’s bridges. It was built in 1816 and was the first iron bridge in Ireland. It is a single span structure with cast iron railings and decorative lamps. It was originally named the Liffey Bridge but is now called the Ha’penny because until 1919 to cross it there was a half-penny charge.
Accepted as the symbol of Dublin, the Ha’penny Bridge (officially Wellington Bridge after the ‘Iron Duke’) was opened in 1816. Cast at Coalbrookdale in Shropshire in England, the bridge acquired its unofficial moniker from the toll paid to cross the river – one old half penny. The bridge was the only pedestrian bridge on the Liffey until the Millennium bridge further up was opened in 2000.
Construction on the bridge, the second to cross this river, began in 1896, with Leffert L. Buck as chief engineer, Henry Hornbostel as architect and Holton D. Robinson as assistant engineer, and the bridge opened on December 19, 1903 . At the time it was constructed, the Williamsburg Bridge set the record for the longest suspension bridge span on Earth. The record fell in 1924, when the Bear Mountain Bridge was completed.
La construcción del puente, el segundo en cruzar el río Este, se inició en 1896 por el ingeniero Leffert L. Buck, Henry Hornbostel como arquitecto y Holton D. Robinson como ingeniero asistente, siendo inaugurado el 19 de diciembre de 1903. En el momento en que fue construido, el puente de Williamsburg estableció el récord como el puente colgante más largo en la Tierra. Su récord no le duró mucho, ya que en 1924 se inauguró el Puente Bear Mountain.
Just as a heavy downpour ended, the sun burst through a hole in the cloud cover. With the sun setting behind the Marin Headlands, I captured this image of the Golden Gate Bridge. I enjoyed the storm and it's aftermath from Pier 39 of San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf.
"Eleven men. Until February 17, 1937, there had been only one fatality, setting a new all-time record in a field where one man killed for every million dollars spent had been the norm. On February 17, ten more men lost their lives when a section of scaffold carrying twelve men fell through the safety net."

From April to December 2001, work on the general reconstruction of the Crimean Bridge. During this time, builders repave the sidewalks and the roadway of the bridge. Prefabricated slabs of pavement have been replaced by a monolith. In addition, the waterproofing of the bridge, carried out anti-corrosion treatment of metal structures has been updated. It replaced as 5500 square meters of granite cladding.
