Even though we are officially an hour into Monday here in Perth it's still Sunday in the Northern Hemisphere thus hopefully making this shot viable for Sunday bridges :) There have been bridges crossing the
Swan River at this point in Guildford since 1855. Barkers Bridge, the current structure made mainly from whole Jarrah trunks crosses from Guildford to Caversham over a wide stretch of floodplain on the Caversham side.. you can see some of the piles on the floodplain have been replaced by steel posts, still an impressive and sturdy structure, those Jarrah piles will be around longer than moi I bet! Hope you had an excellent weekend and are ready to face the week ahead.. I can tell you with Aimee moving in a few days it's going to be a strange one for me! Take care....

Interesting. We don't often look at the bridges from under them.
ReplyDeletehee hee... It may be Monday in Australia, but it's still Sunday in California!
ReplyDelete«Louis» is delighted that you've posted this at Sunday Bridges.
Yep, still Sunday afternoon here so you had a Sunday bridge. We are finally coming out of the heavy rain and gloom and getting sun now. Happy Sunday to you!
ReplyDeleteI was taking photos of a bridge yesterday over the flooded Thames
ReplyDeleteGreat bridge captures and I love your composition!! Enjoy your sun!! Wish we had some!!
ReplyDeleteCool bridge, Grace! Enjoy the move and make sure you have a key to the new place so you can visit very often!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteNice bridge.
ReplyDeleteI should have done more bridges while on my road trip or at least posted the cruddy ones I have the the Rockville Bridge on Sunday!
I like doing bridges when I have the time to float below them on one of my inflatables and take photos from under them. Railroad draw and lift bridges are especially interesting from underneath.
Nice bridge, especially the top photo. The water looks red. Maybe it is subliminal, thinking of Aimee.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back. Nice composition.
ReplyDeleteIt will be a new day for your with her not RIGHT there. Glad you'll have skype and such. For what it's worth, we'll be here enjoying your on-line company!

Those Jarrah trees make a good bridge, It still looks very sturdy.
ReplyDeleteAha! So there's another reason for loving Jarrah other than because it's RED?!?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting tone to the water in that second shot. Reflection from underneath the bridge?
ReplyDeleteVery striking bridges
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a very solid bridge indeed!
ReplyDeleteBridges make interesting photo subjects. Some of them are quite striking.
ReplyDeleteIt's a magnificent bridge!
ReplyDeleteIt is, indeed!
