Small and Detail Theme: Old Footbridge

2010.05.26
pixel
This very old and decrepit footbridge spans Fountain Creek in Manitou Springs. It's scheduled for replacement which is good because of the danger, and sad because another artifact from Manitou's colorful and intriguing history will be gone.

Locally, it goes by the nickname, "Indiana Jones Bridge."

(First and last best enlarged.)

Unchained Wow, great details and structures here. That twisted nail is special, as so as the angle of 4, and ... well every single one.

????? Wonderful set full of creativity and well done shots. Beauty is in details ;-) Love the Indiana Jones Bridge. Love no. 5 and goes into my favs. It seems a diamond eye in an old creature... Every shot is beautiful. Manitou Springs again ;-)

SADHYA A wonderful set Marsha. I like the flaking paint work and the leaf. Beautiful colours there. You have such a good eye for these details.

MoMac Great set for the theme, it does look a bit worse for the wear but glad you captured it's " beauty" before the replacement.
I'm sure it wont have as much character as this one.

DancingDolphin Yikes! I'm not very brave about crossing bridges that appear to be nearing the end of their life span... so Indiana Jones describes the adventure well. A very nice set of details!
DancingDolphin · 2010-05-26: 17:45
