Rion-Antirion Bridge Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is the very beautiful bridge connecting the Greek Peloponnese to the mainland across the Gulf of Corinth. It was completed in 2004 -- a week before the Athens Olympic Games began -- and received all sorts of engineering awards throughout the world, including the American Society of Civil Engineers' Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement Award. This bridge has immense shock absorbers, or "dampers" to help it survive seismic activity, which is prevalent in the area.

Dear Matt

Superb shot of this elegant bridge which boosts DOF tremendously. It would be nice, if there would be a note to give some details about the bridge. Otherwise your picture is very well composed and executed with nice colors and great sharpness. Well done

Best regards
Urs

Hello Matt,
The bridge taken from an original almost frontal viewpoint with the motorway leading the eye down the bridge and upwards upwards...
Well done.

Paul

Hi Matt.

The composition and especially the DOF are very good. Also I like very much the light of the photo and the whole composition looks very good.

Regards.
