Bridge and Sailing Boat

Bridge and Sailing Boat
This is part of the road bridge that connects Havant to Hayling Island, Hampshire..........the only way on and off!

In the summer it is extremely busy with traffic jams regularly a mile or so long. There used to be a steam railway running adjacent to the bridge, that that closed down in the 1960's.

I assume that the piles supporting the bridge are made of concrete. Nice calm reflections, Keith.

This lovely shot suites monochrome really well Keith. It's pleasingly symmetrical and the deep wriggly reflections are superb. I also like the hazy background.
Happy Tuesday.

Thanks Rosa...........glad you like it.

Went off for a walk on my own today..........in Stansted Forest near Rowlands Castle. The sun was really to harsh for photography, but I saw some deer which was good. Then I had to get back to get my pneumonia vaccination, which is a new one for me!

I hope you had/are having a lovely day!

How nice to see deer! I haven't had that vaccination before. I guess I'll get called somewhen.
Yes, we are enjoying the fine weather today :-))

Thank you Danielle.

It not too bad but you have to plan ahead in the summer...........go very early in the morning generally and come back mid-afternoon (before everyone else). Or go by bicycle of course. I used to do that, but not nowadays!

Oh I have sat in traffic on that bridge more than once, the view however is much nicer from your vantage point and the symmetry is perfection, add the delightful reflections for a superb image Keith, Fabulous !!!!

Keith Burton club has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
Such kind comments Roger..........and very much appreciated.

I try and avoid the busy times in summer, but the traffic is getting worse, even in the "off" season. Years ago, we considered buying a house on Hayling Island, but even then, the traffic put us off :-)
