Photo Hunt - Bridge


The theme for this week's Photo Hunt is bridge(s). Again I don't have to stretch the theme! Here are two shots of the Millennium footbridge from outside the Tate Modern

  3. That's quite a design there. I love the sling shot support of the bridge. This is one cool bridge.

    I know the themes are letting our brains relax a bit.

  6. That's a very different looking bridge. I like the fact that you posted in colour and in monochrome - almost makes it look a different place.

    certainly not your average bridge! Were those two photos from each of the side? The b&w doesnt have the spires of what seems a church? Happy weekend!

  12. Ah o they're both from the same side. The south of teh river. THe North bank is not so easy vis a vis vantage points and the bridge itself was too crowded for any decent shots

  13. That is an impressive bridge. I really must try and visit that area of London again soon.

    I thought it looked familiar. Isn't the Globe just around the corner from where you took that? My cousin and I sometimes visit a pizza place near there, when I'm in London.

    Have a great weekend!

    Fascinating bridge and great shot. Thanks for your visit to Snap2Days.

  20. Ooh, very nice! Your photos remind me that it's been a long time since I've been to London since the last time I was there, it was before the turn of the millenium, so I've never been on the Millenium footbridge or the London Eye!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Wow - those photos are so beautiful!! I can't imagine a bridge so big just for footing it!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Great shot of your beautiful footbridge! I don't know if I could cross it...LOL

    ReplyDelete
  23. Hhhmm..was the bridge built in 2000 celebrating the Millennium? :)

    ReplyDelete
  24. That's an interesting and unusual bridge. How long is that?

    ReplyDelete
  25. I'd love to cross that bridge, it looks so cooool... is it in London? I don't think I've ever heard of it!

    ReplyDelete
  26. I do admire you for the thoughts behind your PH entries.

  42. Can't think anyone has to stretsch this week's theme. At least I found it hard to make a choice. So many interesting bridges. Yours is interesting too. Love your first shot. Guess it's in London.

    Was that before or after the wobbling was fixed? I have an abiding memory of crossing it pulling one of those wheely suitcases. The noise was horrendous.

    ReplyDelete
  46. the design is a bit futuristic. the b & w is interesting. enjoy the weekend!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Really special and cool!! Great to see it in both colors and monochrome :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. Cool looking bridge :) Seeing it in the colored and then B&W is fun!

  52. Hi Jams...long time, no see. I love your bridge photos...the abutments almost remind me of a couple of hands from Poseidon, holding up the bridge...

    Come on over and see my bridge photo[s]. Two photos, but one bridge.

    Happy Hunting.

  53. I really love your view of this bridge! Special the monochrome one. For me that version is so suggestive

  72. Both eXcellent shots! In the color version, my eye is drawn to the rotunda of the builing on the left (lovely architecture), but in the monochrome shot, the bridge really pops.

    ReplyDelete

    We should have been paying attention to the photo hunt theme, we have so many bridge pics and could have participated this week.
