Bridges are fascinating. In Holland we have all kinds of bridges. Beautiful small old bridges over
canals…. When the sun gets low in the evening the light might even come under
a bridge.
The bridges of Paris
are famous… Like the Pont Neuf (nothing new there, it is the oldest bridge of Paris – 1578-1604).
And the elaborate Pont
Alexandre III (Art Nouveau style – build for the World Exhibition in 1900).
Now the smaller bridges are easy to catch on camera, but larger bridges are more difficult. The famous Charles Bridge of
Prague took two shots….
The same with the bridge in Rotterdam .
Look at the little elegant Tango dancing sister in Buenos Aires … The Puente de la Mujer.
For taking a picture of an extremely large bride I need luck. In
In most cases it is forbidden to walk on large bridges. You
cannot park a car near enough anyway. I remember trying to take a picture
sitting in the back of a car while driving over one of the large bridges in Denmark years
ago. When I saw the pictures I wondered about the lines… I hadn’t realized
there was the heating in the rear window.
Flying over the Bridges in Denmark in freezing weather was a
great opportunity.
Finally a portrait of two glorious bridges in full length.
This is the bridge in Denmark between the islands of Fünen and Sealand....
And this is the masterpiece between Denmark and Sweden over the Öresund.
