Big Four Bridge


The Big Four Bridge for pedestrians and bicycles officially opened for traffic on Friday.  This old  railroad truss bridge spans the Ohio River, connecting Louisville, KY and Jeffersonville, IN.  This old bridge has been a part of the Louisville waterscape since the late 1800s.  I was at the right place, right time, with camera handy back in November to catch this sunset.  Using these three shots to show how dramatically the scene changed in just a few minutes.

If you enjoy water photography be sure to check out Nature FootstepWaters for Sunday to see entries from all over. Or, even better, link to your own water photos.

  5. What a pretty evening back-drop for the bridge Faye
    You mentioned you were thinking of posting your French pics ..... most bloggers love anything French. I've got the two blogs one French and the other for my home city but I've noticed some people incorporate the two. It's very rewarding to post holiday pics as you get to re- live the time.
