Good Morning Brian,

We have both uploaded bridges today but very different ones in terms of age and weather conditions!

I like your viewpoint which, with its overhanging branches, manages to give this area a sense of open space. You have given us lots of useful textural information about the f/g, the underside of the bridge as well as its more recognisable upper reaches.
A fine, strong composition; the tall tower of the bridge creates a good link to the Tower of London, giving us that fine sense of depth.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hello Brian,
A fine perspective on Tower Bridge and one that is not often seen. You have framed the composition perfectly. Superb technical presentation with first class colours and clarity. Well done, thanks for sharing. Have a good week.

Hello Brian,
certainly not the usual view of Tower Bridge,the platform leading to the tower has its own interest whilst the architecture of the Tower is fascinating.
The leaves at the top of the frame are a really nice touch.
All the best Les.

Hola Brian!
You can't hide neither that you like blue...Nice mostly blue shot with a creative POV. Always sharp and clean!

A trademark Brian shot which features your ability to produce a well considered and powerful composition with your use of perspective and bold colour.I love the plunging curve which sweeps into the shot from above, it adds such dynamism and movement. Good detail under the bridge too, well done you for managing what I imagine was tricky exposure. Warm regards rosemary

Hello Brian

A trademark of yours this - well composed, pin sharp, well exposed, vivid colours and EARLY in the morning! Nice use of he leaves to frame the shot too.

Fantastic!

Hi Brian
haha...funny to see your points at 22222!
when i first glanced at this in your gallery, i said to myself...oooohhhh! I like it!
it seems like such a simple idea to take photo's below bridge decks but hardly anyone ever does it! lol
and look at the results you can get too.
a different POV of a famous Icon, and its now totally new and unique.
great work as usual with sharpness and lighting!
cheers

The search for the best image quality and interlocking effects.
Always evident particolre that wedges, and the play of perspectives.
The cone around the game of "Bridge" the contract, the method, the 13 took the slam.

Suspension bridges really are majestic creatures, and this POV illustrates that well, Brian. Great lighting - even the underside of the roadway appears illuminated, possibly by a reflection off the water. Stunning colors as usual!

Hi Brian,

world famous object - extraordinary POV, extraordinary blues - makes extraordinary good photograph.
Sounds easy - but take into consideration who is pushing the shutter.

Um abraço Gonçalo

Hi Brian,
How do you do it! It seems that you carry pots of paint with you to brighten up the urban landscape. The juxtaposition of the blue objects (not sure what they are) with the blue bridge is just so well seen. Gorgeous colour and one of the best pictures that I have seen of this iconic bridge.
Kind Regards, Ann
