Clifton Suspension Bridge is one of Bristol’s most recognisable structures. Designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, opened on 8 December 1864.
The train doesn't stop anymore, but here is a reminder that it once did more then just whistle.

A loan camera and a wake up call at stupid O' clock to drive nearly 2 hours for 'a predicted epic' sunrise at the iconic Clifton Springs Jetty. The upside was, I wasn't fighting for a prime spot on the beach :)
LIT. There are plenty of compositions like this in different conditions but the brightness of the bridge against the darkness of the night was what drew me to this, Another from my cold evening at the bridge!

My second shot from the Clifton Suspension Bridge taken last Thursday.
I'd originally planned to get this shot the weekend before lockdown, but as we were banned from travelling anywhere I had to wait until restrictions had eased up a bit. So, while I was stood there on Thursday evening, I abandoned my original plan of going to the Severn Bridge for sunset and just stayed up at the Clifton Observatory to get this shot.
It was a lovely evening and although it was a late drive back home it was worth it.
Clifton Cathedral is the last major cathedral to be built in Britain. It was built in 1969-73, and designed by Ronald Weeks, E S Jennett and Antoni Poremba of the Percy Thomas Partnership.
The world famous Clifton Suspension Bridge was designed by the great Victorian engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, although he never lived to see his creation finished in 1864.
Work actually began in 1831, but the project was dogged with political and financial difficulties, and by 1843, with only the towers completed, the project was abandoned. Brunel died aged only 53 in 1859, but the Clifton Suspension Bridge was completed as his memorial. Designed in the early 19th century for light horse drawn traffic, it still meets the demands of 21st century commuter with 11-12,000 vehicles crossing it every day.
The Clifton Suspension Bridge’s spectacular setting on the cliffs of the Avon Gorge has made it the defining symbol of Bristol, drawing thousands of visitors a year just to stroll across for views of the ancient Avon Gorge, elegant Clifton and the magnificent city beyond.

In May 1997, the Texas Legislature officially designated Clifton as the Norwegian Capital of Texas. Clifton and the surrounding area was settled by Norwegian immigrants in the mid-19th century. The nearby community of Norse is the final resting place of Cleng Peerson, commonly recognized as the "Father of Norwegian Immigration to America." The founder of Norse was Ole Canuteson (Ole Knudsen) from the Stavanger region of Norway.

I have changed the title and this description in view of the tragic events that have unfolded at the Clifton Suspension Bridge today. It seems inappropriate to be celebrating today but I hope plans will go ahead at the weekend.
Rest in peace Charlotte and Zaani. More resources for mental health are long overdue in this country.
The last of my rushed attempts to photograph the fog in the Gorge on Sunday morning; by the time I had tried to make adjustments for the exposure the fog had pretty much gone. I've tried to eliminate the purple banding in the sky, I hope it's not too noticeable.
With the tail end of their train nearly clear of the Runaway, the first interchange of the day has reached the most level part of the hill as they clamber up the mountain back from Clifton to Morenci.
