The Middle Bridge

I happened to be in Maine last week, so I decided to stop and check out the view of Portsmouth from a familiar old spot.  While I always love the view towards Portsmouth’s waterfront and the North Church, I decided to shoot something I hadn’t before – the Middle Bridge itself.  With yesterday’s freighter accident with the Harbour Feature coming loose and striking the bridge (as shown below), I’m not so sure I’ll have the opportunity to get back there for this shot anytime soon. I have a never ending appreciation for engineering and our man made structures, and there’s a simple elegance to the bridge and rail pattern beneath the street decking.
