have you heard of the "Sunday Bridges" meme? This photo would be perfect for it.
I love this, it is a great shot.
PS You can find out about it from my post, I participated today - or San Francisco Bay Daily Photo, the blog hosting it
Have a great day!
Thank you Lily Hydrangea! Good idea! I didn't know this "Sunday Briges"... Its know done ;)
terrific perspective here.
Haven't yet crossed over this one. (But I definitely recognize that fringed purse.) Glad you followed Lily's advice and joined in.
Nice photo. Looking through the glass looks almost surreal.
Great perspective! It almost looks like a stairway to heaven as it just recedes and disappears.
Beautiful perspective, the design look great and modern, hope I'll have the time to see this wonder in a next June work trip to Europe. Thanks for your kind visits.
Great photo :)
Fantastic! This would also make a fine contribution to James' "Weekend Reflections" meme. Welcome to Sunday Bridges!
I'd certainly be surprised if I came across this in Venice without knowing of its existence beforehand! I love your view of it, Pierre.
I like this bridge. And your view on it is very original!
I love the design of this bridge, from pictures I've seen. Nothing wrong with a little bit of modern architecture in Venice, if it's not ugly (like that boxy bank). However, I think it's too bad it couldn't have been constructed at least partially using stone. Concrete does not age well.
Seems like an amazing bridge design .. great photo, too .. as usual
A modern angle, with modern clothes, for a modern bridge.
nice capture
That is a very clever shot.
Is the bridge still "under repair" on one side? It's not actually all that nice to walk over, either. - And - what happened to the Webcam that was trained on it for a (very short) time???
Unique and a superb shot!:)
For acrophobics, this bridge is only attractive at a distance!
Very cool shot! love it ... Stairway to ...
hmm... feels a little Magritte!
