The Bridge!

Very impressive, Rosa. I have used the old Severn Bridge a few times... but not this one!...
Is there a toll?... Super photo, well framed.

There is a toll of £5.60 for cars at the moment, going into Wales and no charge coming back to England, but it is being scrapped completely at the end of this year. Thank you for your nice comments John.

Impressive and stunning!!!! A great shot!!!!!!**************************

Thank you so much for your kind words Nouchet.

Impressive bridge and so well captured Rosa.

Thank you very much Jaap.

Schitterende opname,Rosa.Het geeft altijd een beklemmend gevoel,als je over een brug rijd en de lucht is zo donker, daar waar je naar toe gaat.
Hartelijke groeten.............Frans.

Yes it does Frans!! The weather got worse before it got any better! It was a trip to stay with some very good friends in Wales for a few days.
Kind regards, Rosa.

A technical feat that this bridge very well photographed, Rosa !

Thank you Pat. I always look forward to seeing it when I go to Wales.

This looks fantastic and sculptural! I hope you weren't the driver;-)

I agree with you Gudrun, it is very sculptural. No I was not driving :-)

Looks a rather beautiful bridge. I'm glad to hear they are doing away with the tolls.

I love seeing it in the distance Jean, with the anticipation of crossing it.

I like this shot very much Rosa especially travelling and out in the fast lane !!!!
Wonderfully symmetric and through the windscreen - incredible.

Not too bad considering the state of the windscreen Jeff :)

Great framing and symmetry!

I took about six shots Keith and this turned out to be the best one. Pleased you like it, thank you.

Klasse ! Tolle Symmetrie ! Und ein dramatischer Blick an den Himmel !

Thank you very much for your kind comments Ulrich.

Splendid point of view that underlines the real dimensions of the bridge. Nice tones.
All the best
Fabio

Thank you very much Fabio. The bridge looks beautiful from a distance and then changes to this perspective on the approach, and the two visions are so different and fascinating.
All the best, Rosa.

A great capture Rosalyn

Thank you Peter.

I love bridges like this Rosa. You have caught this perfectly, but how.... looks like you are in the middle of the road. Very well done.

Regards, Herb

I am always excited to cross this bridge Herb.....either way! I think we were in the middle lane, but I wasn't driving :-)) Regards, Rosa.

This is a cracker Rosa. The perspective is spot on and the dark sky highlights the bridge perfectly.

Best regards, Doug

Thank you Doug. I took quite a few as you can imagine, but this was the best one I thought.

Best regards, Rosa.

I see what you mean about the colour of the sky when you were crossing the bridge, Rosa. Cheers, Joe

The weather got worse Joe! Very windy and the stray from the rain made for bad driving conditions. Then the next day was very bright with a blue sky, albeit rather windy! Cheers, Rosa.

Spectacular, Rosa! A very exciting shot!

Thanks Diane. Crossing over the river to Wales and staying with some very good friends for a few days :-))

Hi Rosa

You have done really well getting this picture, perfectly timed, and great light too!
I have been over it a few times, and never seen it looking as nice as this!!

Best Wishes
Peter

Hi Peter,

Many thanks for your kind words. You know what it's like, you think you have a good picture on the back of the camera, but get home and it's not as good as you thought. Fortunately this one was, so I was very pleased! The other half dozen I took of the bridge were rubbish!

Best wishes, Rosa.

HFF Rosa

Thank you Fred :)

A great Point of view! a bit frightening...but the other cars dare...so would I ;)

My youngest daughter has to close her eyes when travelling over big bridges like this....when her husband is driving, I might ad ;o))

Well seen - well done ! top capture

Grandios!

Magnífico encuadre y profundidad.

Muchas gracias José.

Since I traveled Wales in 1984, I can't have crossed this bridge but the old one! ;-)

excellent perspective and colours!
