Covere Bridge (Yes, Again)

Jordan Bridge - A Covered Bridge in Stayton Oregon

Frequent visitors may recognize this bridge, Jordan Bridge in Pioneer Park, since I've posted it once or twice. Or possibly five or six. Or maybe more. Anyway, it was time for yet another view.

So here's another view. And I just realized I have a thing for bridges. Not just this bridge, but bridges in general. But that's okay. I can live with it.

There's something irresistable about covered bridges. Incredible shot, the lighting & colors on the bridge are wonderful.

Is that a "pink" covered bridge? If you like covered bridges and like to photograph them, Ohio, where I live has several hundred still operational. I have photos of some 300 or more. Anyway. Nice photo.

I got to fly last night. I mean I just dove in and flew. You can find out how on my blog post today.

The lighting is just magnificent--it looks like a very serene place.

Thanks, everyone! :)

Abraham, no it isn't pink... just the lighting. I used a mild HDR effect to bring out the colors.

Oregon once had 600 covered bridges, and now only 51 remain. Very sad, but efforts are being made now to preserve the existing bridges. That's why Jordan Bridge is in a park now. It would have been torn down otherwise.

a well designed bridge is meant to be photographed again and again. I'll not complain if you post more photos of this bridge...or any other for that matter!

I love bridges too. This one is a beauty.

Down here in Florida, many times there is a park at the base of them, and I love to get out and walk around. Even the massive bolts and whatnot on modern ones intrigues me.

the lighting in this picture is lovely. I can understand why you would have a thing for covered bridges, they are very romantic.
