About Taken FROM a bridge

Photos taken from a bridge (or a viaduct or train trestle). That means the photographer is on the bridge.

Examples are landscapes, water, rivers, creeks, streams, bays, swamps, waterfalls, boats, kayaks, sailboats, people in boats, sunsets, sunrises, sunbathers, animals, trains, train tracks, etc. as seen from the bridge.

Rules (in case you haven't read them already!):
1. No porn. Partial nudity is ok if it's tasteful I'll decide if it's tasteful. Please don't be offended if I think it's not...

2. Please identify the bridge (or viaduct) and location. That is, geo-tag the photo.

3. The photo should be taken on the bridge but have little if any of the bridge itself in it. (Other bridges in the distance are ok.)

The nice thing about taking photo from bridges is that you get unusual angles on the things below. Being above gives you a different perspective. On the other hand, there's nothing wrong with taking photos of things "above" the bridge.

The bridges do not have to be famous. Any bridge will do. Even footbridges.

If I delete your photo for some reason, I'll let you know why.
