Not far from the famous Folsom Prison made famous by Johnny Cash is the Folsom Rainbow Bridge which spans the American River as it flows through Folsom California. Also known as the Greenback Lane Bridge, it was built in 1917 by Ross Construction Company of Sacramento California and designed by Drury D. Butler it spans 208 feet. A concrete arch bridge with a great amount of aesthetic and stylistic detail in the design.

This week's theme of the Happy Caturday group is "Song, movie or book" and after pondering the theme for a whole week Tofu chose "Folsom Prison Blues" by Johnny Cash. :)
I add another capture in the comments.
Happy Caturday !
These are the 2 remaining buildings at Folsom Farm, It’s another good example of one combination that attracts me: the grasses and other features of the steppe, the vast blue skies and the weathered remnants of abandoned farms. Rick Williams inspires me too!
Location Information:
The Folsom Farm site is near Fishtrap Lake in eastern Washington state, USA. It includes an early 1900's homestead surrounded by more than 8,000 acres of beautiful landscapes with habitats ranging from forest and shrub-steppe to grass and wetlands. Part of the Channeled Scablands of eastern Washington, this area is named for the trenches and outcrops of ragged, scarred rock interspersed with wet meadows and wheat fields. The Great Missoula Ice Age Floods that scoured the region more than 12,000 years ago carved out this unique landscape. The antique farm house overlooks the restored Smick Meadows wetlands. Fishtrap is located ~30 miles/48km southwest of Spokane Washington: 47.367395, -117.830433
The Folsom local shoots out of Roseville and snakes through the yard. The train will spend the night switching industries along its route and return to Roseville early in the morning.
This is Folsom's new bridge, taken a couple weeks ago.
It was not a good weekend in our household. We had to put our 12 year old cat down, I learned I will be losing my job in a few months, and I have a crappy cough/cold. Ugh. Hope yours was better.

Folsom Prison Blues
Johnny Cash
I hear the train a comin'
It's rolling round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' on
But that train keeps a rollin' on down to San Antone
When I was just a baby my mama told me
"Son, always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns"
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry
Just got back from a fantastic three days of non stop photography down around the Cooma area with my mate Paul. The conditions were amazing from 6:30am each morning, right throughout the days, and into the evening and early night.
First image from the trip. This is the old Maclaughlin Meatworks, nestled in amongst the hills. I climbed up onto the old railbridge over the road below, and shot this comp around two in the afternoon.
Hope you like "Folsom Prison Blues"
Cheers, Mike See less
Every spring, when the rolling hills and oak trees of the Sierra foothills are briefly green, I love getting drone shots at sunrise when the low angle of the sun casts long shadows and bathes the landscape in golden light.
Every spring, when the rolling hills and verdant oak trees of the Sierra foothills are briefly green, I love getting out with the camera to capture the fleeting season.
I took this image in the spring of 2013. The lupine display was nicer last year, at least in terms of fuller displays, and fewer bare patches. The problem last year was the sky was completely uninteresting, during my visit. Seeing this, I decided not to wait around a couple of hours for sunset, but instead just take in the view before driving home.
Before leaving, I took a shot of the scene to help me plan for a return trip this year. As the wind was mostly calm, I selected a ten second exposure, to obtain enhanced color and smoothness in the water. It took a while for me to add this image to my website and post it here, because the shot felt a bit random. However, even if not overly interesting, I used Capture One software to help me process my image and get the most out of this pretty field of lupines; one of many that lined the banks of Folsom Lake, during the spring of 2013.
With the sun setting, the Folsom Local crew had just started their shift as they speed through McClellan. The local will work through most of the night before returning back to Roseville where the train originated.
