Friday Shootout: Bridges

I was trying to think outside the square, when I saw this poster at a video shop, I thought this would suit the bridge of our nose.

This is a bridge for the train. I drive on this bridge to and from work. When I come home, the train always comes to this station.

This is a Huntly, we stopped there to have our picnic dinner, and it was freezing cold.

I think it was an Auckland suburb, and the overhead brdige is very long.

The next four photos are the many bridges of Hamilton as they span across the Waikato river in Hamilton city. The waikato is the biggest river in New Zealand. I did a post saying there are 6 bridges. Fellow bloggers Pete and Dave have posted photos of this river. http://ann-mythoughtsandphotos.blogspot.com/2009/10/my-world-tuesday-hamilton-bridges.html




This Mangere bridge links Auckland to the International airport. http://ann-mythoughtsandphotos.blogspot.com/2009/09/watery-wednesday-mangere-bridge.html



Here is a walkway which lets people walk over a swamp. This is next to the Mangere Bridge.

I used my computer to change my colored photos to sepia. If there was any function to change it to B & W. I couldn't find any. It was only about 30 years or so when all the photos I had taken were B & W. Today, it has become fashionable again.

Thanks Elaine.

“When I suggested ‘bridge’ as a theme for one our shoot outs I was originally thinking of the type that spans water. However, the more I thought about it, the more I contemplated the varied meanings of the word. So I hope we’ll have a broad range of photos and that we might see ones that portray most of these definitions:

1 a : a structure carrying a pathway or roadway over a IMG_3124edepression

2 : something resembling a bridge in form or function: as a : the upper bony part of the nose; also : the part of a pair of glasses that rests upon it b : a piece raising the strings of a musical instrument c : the forward part of a ship's superstructure from which the ship is navigated d : the hand as a rest for a billiards or pool cue; also : a device used as a cue rest

It has also been decided that this will be our first assignment to be shot in black and white so have fun and to borrow a phrase from the Irish, fill yer boots!”
