Cool shots! This looks an aweful lot like the Tacoma Narrows bridge not far from where I live. Very cool!

Learn something new every day! Thanks for the little lesson. I didn't even know this bridge had a name. These are all very good. That last one has me a bit frightened. You know my fear of bridges/heights! Did you stop all traffic on the bridge to get these ;-)

Great photos and interesting info. We are learning about the Great Depression at school. Maybe I could weave this into my unit. We have some historic bridges here in Chattanooga. I'll have to post them some time. I like the lines and angle of the last photo, and I feel like I'm driving across in #3.

Hey I know this bridge. Excellent job Mom. Love the angle and the cool color of the bridge. #1 looks the bridge never ends. I can't wait to go shooting with you.

These pics are great. Love the angles. At first it reminded me of the Narrows Bridge, but as I scrolled down they are a lot different. This one has a bit of a creepy factor.
