Photographer's Note
The ancient city Assos has a lot to offer. During the Ottoman reign, this bridge was built and used up to last century. Now it is not used instead a modern bridge just parallel to it is used. Actually this one and the new one can be seen in this picture

nice note !you know,I came to Istanbul & visited Antalya too this summer,& really loved your country & people.
your picture is fine,I only think the bridge has disappeared in the gray background.I think maybe you should try another angle,for example from the ground level to have the sky as background.the result must be something !

Very nice sharpness and colors on this one. The angle you chose to photograph the bridge has created a very pleasant scene. The trees, the bridge, the sky and the background all work together on this. And it makes this stream seem like a few puddles. Too bad they couldn't make the new bridge be more like this one. Nice job

Good composition, Mehmet. The landscape is beautiful and it compliments the lighter foreground. It is interesting to see a bridge over an almost dry river bed. Nice colours and brick work on the bridge. Thank you for the informative note.

Reminds me the Drina Bridge althoug doesn't look like it. The oldness of the bridge made me feel like that. It would have been better if you had taken all the bridge in your frame

Merhaba Mehmet Bey,
Assos'un tam disinda bu kopruyu 1992 yilinda gormustum, ve guzel bir resmini cekmedigime de uzulmustum. Yine gormekle memnun oldum. Siz Selimiyeyi de gormus oldugunuz icin, belki hatirlarsiniz. Istanbul-Edirne yolunda buna benzer, fakat cok daha uzun bir kopru vardir, sanki bu sekilde yukari asagiya kopruler bir birlerine eklemnis gibi. Hurmetlerimle, Bulent Atalay
