Weekend Reflections - Bridge

Linking with James for this weeks Weekend Reflections.  I've even managed to get my sister to join in the fun, her weekend reflection can be found here. Please feel free to stop by her blog and show her some love. 

Image taken crossing the border from Maryland to Virginia

At one time or another each of us finds ourselves faced with a bridge to cross, whether metaphorically or physically.  What I love about this shot is the multiple layers and all that it conveys.

  2. Very intricate image and beautifully composed. I do not even want to know how you managed that shot but assume that no one was hurt - hah!

    Off to visit your sister's blog.

  3. Great composition - it's kind of abstract but manages to suggest a
    story too.

  11. Bridges-they can be breathtaking, and they can take your breath away. Some make me hesitate. Others, I want to stroll slowly across. Some lead to mystery, others to the unknown....

    You know what I mean?

    Going to visit your sister now

  12. Love the lines and reflections and the contrast between some hard edges that are completely in focus and then the softness of the other lines. Also, love the black and white. Nice work!

  19. Great shot -- that bridge looks very familiar...it wouldn't be the Point of Rocks bridge, would it? (That's the only covered bridge I can think of btw MD and VA... I think we may be neighbors! : )

  20. Jessica, yes it is. My husband commutes into Bethesda each day from Point of Rocks train station.
