Under the Bridge



I took this during my lunch break the other day. I was walking down on the walking trails and this railroad bridge spans overhead. I thought it looked really cool, and it's something most people wouldn't notice. I think people are often to busy to just stop, and look around them. I actually had to climb up under another bridge to get a picture at this angle. I liked how it looked though, with all those girders and how it makes its own pattern. Plus to me it carries a bit of nostalgia--when I was a little kid, my Dad and me used to go out and walk around train tracks and look at all the bridges and stuff. This just reminded me of when I used to do that.

  1. I like the angles and lines of the steel underneath the bridge. It makes for a very interesting pattern. Most bridges are being made from concrete now and its becoming harder and harder to find steel ones.

  2. This picture is great because it shows part of a bridge that usually is left un noted. it has a neat pattern and looks like a lot of work has gone into this creation.

  3. This is a really cool picture. I really like it because like everyone already said, it's something that would probably be unnoticed otherwise. But there's so much structure and design that goes into something so basic for function.
