Shard Bridge at High Tide.

[johntwo]

The Shard Bridge crosses the river Wyre at Skipool near Fleetwood.  This is the new(ish) structure that replaced the old toll bridge.  Being the only access to the area North of Fleetwood (aka Over Wyre), the residents North of the river used to threaten revolution because they considered themselves held hostage by the bridge Co. monopoly.  The County Council's (eventual) response was the new bridge.

Very well-presented, John.  Was it a long exposure?

Nice one, i like the low vantage point.

Very nice... Very nice indeed! I do like a bridge photo, and this is just the ticket

Gareth, yes it was but I'm not sure what because some DXO processing seems to have stripped out the metadata. I was using a 10x ND filter and I'm guessing that it was about 3-5 secs.

Excellent! The composition, the processing and the presentation are spot on.

Good stuff, John.

Interesting processing there John ... love the contrasting vertical and horizontal aspects of the image  which are really  enhanced by both the processing and the composition .. it works a r treat for me ...
