In the Midwest Winter and Summer are seasons of extremes to be endured and 
survived. Spring is a time of renewal; time to plant and look for green shoots 
emerging from dark loamy soil. Fall is a time for reflection; time for walks in 
a forest so quiet you can almost hear the falling leaves hit the ground.

I knew they built it, although when I was there (early '70s) the way to
get from Malmo to Copenhagen was on the hydrofoil.  It was fascinating
(in a road accident kind of way) to watch the hard-core drinkers line
up a whole row of drinks and knock them back during the brief period
duty-free service was offered.

Or, of course, you could take the slow (but cheap) ferry, and get a
couple of hours drinking time.

Great shot... would love to see a print of that.  I went over that 
bridge when I was in Sweden... it's a cool bridge (if a bridge can be cool).

Re: PESO: The bridge to...

Hi Bruce

I like the composition - simple and very effective. A classic "lead the eye into
the picture" composition.  I'd like to have seen the same image photographed
later in the day - I think the colours in the vegetation and soils in the
distance might have had a bit more impact then?   

I didn't pick up on the apparent tilting of the bridge until John mentioned it
but I can see what he means.

Cheers

Brian

Thanks for the suggestions.  Fortunately it is somewhat close.  I'm
guessing it will be better with morning light, as it sits 1000 feet
down in the bottom of the canyon.  Not much sunset light to speak of.
I'll have to get up early a couple of mornings and see what it looks
like.

Hello Don,

I truly appreciate comments.  This is a case where I am unsure about
my overall feelings concerning this one.  So I figured on putting it
up and getting some feedback from others, who's opinions I value.
Thanks for all input, good, bad or otherwise.

You are of course 100% correct, just my (old hippie) hangup about

Bruce, the scene looks like it has possibilities, the railings running off
into the distance really grab my attention. Your image doesn't do much for
me - centered makes it static & the lighting is harsh (try this again around
sunrise or sunset), also a different point of view (higher or lower camera
height would help make it more interesting).
Hope it is close by so you can easily return and work it.
