Southern Connection

I have several pics to play with and probably upload from my D90, but this is one shot I took with my Note 4 at the New River Gorge Bridge in West Virginia. If you haven't seen this bridge, but can get there someday, do it! It's pretty impressive to see in person. The architecture of the bridge just draws your eyes to it immediately.

 

There is a welcome center right beside the bridge where there are multiple places to see the bridge from overlooks. Be ready to walk a lot of steps to get to the overlook that this shot was taken from! The info at the bridge says that a Washington Monument and two Statue of Liberty's could be stacked on top of each other and there would still be 20 feet to spare to reach the bridge from the river below. I've been to "Bridge Day" at this bridge where they close one side of the bridge to allow for foot traffic, and they allow BASE jumpers to jump and parachute to a landing area below. So, next time you're in southern West Virginia, be sure to stop and check this bridge out!
