So glad to have help to sort out the mess my cables always are in. My contribution to this weeks Macro Mondays with theme cable.
The [Old] Alexandra Bridge, built in 1926 to accommodate cars using the Caribou Trail which was established during British Columbia's Gold Rush. Today it is far too narrow to handle 2 lanes of cars, or heavy vehicles, and was replaced with a new bridge in 1961. Now that bridge is under significant alterations/repairs.
How does one show the features of a bridge like this well? I decided to try a close up of the cables and girders to give some idea of it's construction, as well as how those cables were anchored into the rock.

Happy Donnerstagsmonochrom!
Saturday morning it was plenty foggy out and for once I decided to get out early and try for some fog shots. As I drove up to this location I thought a train would be pretty cool through the fog. I stuck around for about 20 minutes and sure enough I heard the train whistle in the distance. With my finger on the shutter button, I waited for the headlights to get in just the right spot between the poles and then..................*snap*.
Got the shot :-)
Have a great week everyone!!

For a High-lead Steam Skidder(seen in the background) -- Built by Meadow River Lumber’s Rainelle shop using older Lidgerwood skidder engines and winches – completed in 1945 – rostered as No. 1; mounted on a 55-foot car frame, the mast (tower, spar) fabrication (standing 96-feet from its base in operating condition) and cable capability (over 3,300 feet) made it one of the largest high-lead skidders ever used in the East. What the whole thing looks like: www.flickr.com/photos/lionel682/50203846421/in/album-7215...
IFS Cloud Royal Docks
The London cable car, also known as the Dangleway and officially as the IFS Cloud Cable Car for sponsorship reasons, is a cable car link across the River Thames in London, England.
Cable television, internet and phone service (yes, landlines still are a thing) can produce a swirling mess to catch the eye.
This is the fifth photo I've posted with "curlicue" in the title; must be my twisted mind.

Cable Beach, Broome, Western Australia, is famous for its "Staircase to the moon" photographs, taken at the full moon. I can only imagine how many photographers are there at that time!
No Staircase to the moon in this photo, but a most pleasant evening spent on Cable Beach.
