Des Moines City Bridges

Des Moines is home to dozens of bridges, some old and some new. One of my "bucket list" things to do was visit the Des Moines River downtown when it was at its lowest point - during the fall. There are a bunch of old sidewalks and many cool vantage points to the many bridges crossing the river downtown.

This is the Court Ave bridge facing north. You can see how low the water is by the dark lines on the walls under the bridge. In a few short months the spot that this photo was taken from will be at least 4 feet underwater.

 

Shot with a Canon 7d and 15-85 lens using a Vanguard Tripod.
