Album Description:

Like most photographers I've met, Joe & I always stay off of the inter-state and take a back road when we have an option. Seems like we have crossed a lot of bridges along the way! Hope you enjoy our album and will leave a message in our guest book.

  • Congratulations on a fine collection of bridge pictures. I have a warm place in my heart for the old truss bridges that are being replaced right and left all over the place:( Here in Tennessee, nearly all have been replaced or are threatened:( If you're ever in Eleizabethton, TN be sure to see the Doe River Covered bridge, and if you ever get to chattanooga, the Walnut Street Bridge is a must. It's been fully restored and reopened as a pedestrian only bridge. If I may be so bold to suggest, with your love of back roads you may be interested in the American Road Yahoo news group. The topic of discussion centers on the pre-interstate US highways, but any road travel topic is welcome.

  • Jayne, When I saw the picture of the bridge at Pruitt, I almost cried! I grew up there, (down the road shown on the right side of that photo.) I used to catch the school bus right where you stood. We moved away when the Gov. bought the land in '73. Thanks for the beautiful memories of my childhood..The next time you go venture that way, you should visit Osage, they used to have a really neat wooden bridge there, and on the other side of that bridge, there used to be a very OLD store, called "Stamps General store". not sure if it still stands today though. Love the memories, keep up the execellent work!

  • Hi Jayne. Thanks for having a look at my albums. I appreciate the comments you made. This album isn't as colorful as the last one I looked at but no doubt it's not meant to be. You have crossed a lot of bridges in your travels and I thank you for sharing them with me. Hooroo for now. Al....Australia.

  • Hi Jayne, congratulations on your featured album yesterday. It's wonderful the way you've used bridges to highlight some beautiful scenery. Covered bridges fascinate me, because we don't have them here. Keep up the good work, best wishes from Keith in Sydney.

  • "Another Low Water Bridge in high water!" is my favorite shot in an album with MANY beautiful shots to choose from! I'm guessing that a low water bridge is only used during the dry season--? Please come visit my "Bridge of Flowers" album!

Just one little tip for taking pictures of ducks... try to get down at their level, which is - as I know - not always that easy. And thanks for your comments on my album. Hanna
