HFF Forth Bridge Fife Scotland 3rd August 1974

HFF Forth Bridge Fife Scotland 3rd August 1974
Going back a few years now, On our return journey from Dunfermline to Edinburgh we sat behind the driver in the front compartment and fortunately he hadn't pulled down the blinds so we had a great view.

I took this shot in the middle of the 1.6 mile long Forth Bridge. The combination of the major supports and smaller iron & steelwork struts make an interesting pattern over this iconic engineering structure opened in 1890.

HFF to everybody. Have a great weekend.

A great photo! The bridge is very impressive. The small hut on the left of the picture particularly caught my eye during our visit.

Quite a different P.O.V here Pete. Funny enough the dark ghost shadow enhances this somehow. Well done.

HFF, enjoy the day. Herb

Such a wonderful photo. Love the abstraction and the power of the structure. Having just an almost shadow of the driver makes this more than just an abstract. Love it.

An intricate metallic spiderweb over the train tracks. Very good shot. All the best, Anton.
