I have been on the River Seine quite a few times but do not remember this particular bridge. Well, I am getting older and forgetting things. Like the wonderful colours in the sky which makes me think the sun is setting. Also like the two struts which rise to the heaves which take my eye from one section of the bridge and photograph to the other. Very well framed and captured.

Strong scenic image, wow I would like to see a closer shot of that bridge, it looks great. Nice sun set/rise it sets up a nice back drop.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.


Fred,
A beautiful & atmospheric picture of this beautiful pink dawn in that Historic Part of la belle France.The bridge, it's pillars & supporting cables make two pyramids of slightly darker pink/grey in the skyline. The bushes/trees and industrial crane all in silhouette give sense of scale. Artistic composition, beautiful soft lighting, superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

Very nice shot of this bridge stretching over the river at dawn. Love the warmth of the colors in the sky against the stark silhouettes.

What a great shot on this very long bridge. The early morning exposure, silhouetted bridge/skyline all with a good panorama frame and focus. Good one Fred.

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel


Wow very nice and soft color in the sky - the bridge is looking similar like the San Francisco Bridge and the cables are looking like two pyramid mountains - very misty image as also the river is shining in this special color - great focus - good camera settings - I would have loved to see a tiny bit more from the lower part to bring the river also into the focus point - handsome sky, thanks for sharing

Comment from Mollie213


Beautiful pink background.
Bride steel is barely visible, almost like a mist.
Good shot from a hotel room so you must have had a good position.
Thanks for sharing.
