An album full of character ,history, charm & wonderful composition Luc , I loved it in 2003 & today I love it still.I do not see covered bridges here & they hold a complete facination for me ,how I would love to travel through one .The closest thing we would have for atmosphere would be the tunnels built through rock for roads ,you get that enclosed feeling with them for example the Victoria Tunnel in Wellington or perhaps the Lyttleton Tunnel connecting Christchurch & Lyttleton ,in the South Island ,yes ,I have travelled through both many times & they hold a magical enchantment for me everytime I do........

Hi, Luc what an awesome colection of photographs...bridges are one of my favourite subjects. It might have something to do with my name.lol (Bridget). Thanks for sharing this album with us.

Bonjour Luc! Fantastic portfolio of covered bridges. I see so few of these, and I enjoy your extensive and beautifully composed collection very much. Sharon

said ourjrny 2007.01.01 at 13:12:18 PST

I've stopped long enough to check out your albums. They are great! I think I will fold the corner down on this page and come back for a visit now and then. Gotya!

said gotya109 2006.04.24 at 12:48:09 PDT

Hi Luc, I enjoy your work. The covered bridges are something to see. One of my favorite bridges was burt down by an arsonist. But I hear the fine folks of Parke County Indiana, are going to rebuild it, exactly like it was. I hope to get a few photos of the construction. Take care friend... Darrell

Hi Luc, Another beautiful addition to your albums. Covered bridges are always such great photo subjects, and you make the best of them. Mike

Hi Luc :o) and thank you for your nice comments and warm wishes in my GB. It's OK - I understand that you had no time lately - me neither :o) Anyway - I added you to my favourites again - because we still keep in touch and...because of your beautiful additions in the album :o) Best friendly wishes for a Happy New Year 2006 from Tami and Aicani waiting for your new additions and - new releases :o)

said tamihania 2006.01.25 at 05:57:24 PST

Hi Luc. I still love all these covered bridges. Maybe a bit envious too, that you have access to so many in your country. I think it is so wonderful that they are preserved and still here after so many years to use and enjoy. Always love your photography and thank for being part of Webshots. Dynna in MI.

said dynnamae 2006.01.24 at 11:05:19 PST

Wow Luc, just as your barns and farms, this Elegant collection of covered bridge imagery is Superb My Friend!! So many appear to be in excellent shape, must be kept well for the stormy Winter seasons! Love your compositional angles, all seem to be their Best Side!! Would love to see this beautiful portfolio featured!!! Thanks for sharing with us Luc, Take Care and have a Wonderful Week! GB, Ted

said torretab 2006.01.23 at 04:27:08 PST

Superbe, ces additions, Luc! J'espère qu'au Canada, on a remarqué non seulement ton talent -d'autres peuvent l'avoir aussi- mais un gène beaucoup plus rare: la persévérance!!! Tu dis bien que chaque pont avait son histoire, mais ne dis pas le nombre de kilomètres que tu as avalé pour en faire le tour. Et je parle sérieusement: à quand ta publication sur ce sujet vraiment original et de grande valeur historique??? - A bientôt donc de tes nouvelles! Avec nos souvenirs très cordiaux: Kaethi et Henri

said oertlif_2 2006.01.23 at 02:57:50 PST

May be they need to be covered because of the freezing weather conditions in winter? I can only think how dangerous they would be to use if covered in Ice and Snow when crossing the rivers etc? Anyway ,this series of photographs holds so much history and intrique.......how is the book coming along Luc? I think it will be a best seller with the tales that could be told.....Escaping Bank Robbers,Runaway Lovers ..........the imagination runs riot when viewing this wonderful collection of yours!Thanks for enriching our lives Luc ...it's great to see you have some "Luc Time" happening at the moment after a frantic Festive Season for you!Love,as always, Lynne

said lynne294 2006.01.22 at 23:08:17 PST

Bon Jour Luc! These are great photos mate. You said each of these bridges would have a story to tell. Wouldn't they be great stories to listen to. One day you might tell me the purpose of the covered bridges, the being covered part I mean. LOL. Thanks for sharing mate. Cheers Al

said acehigh999 2006.01.22 at 21:18:25 PST

Bonjour Luc, Merci d'avoir jeté un coup d'oeil sur mon feature de la semaine passée. C'est avec plaisir que je revois cet album sur les ponts couvert, il y a quelques années c'est un peu grâce à tes photos que j'ai pris goût à les photographier. Bravo pour ce superbe album. Michel

said nttl2k1 2006.01.22 at 19:54:48 PST

Bonjour Luc, Oui chaque pont a son histoire. J'ai remarque celui de Routhierville, qui n'est pas loin de chez-nous. Il a sa propre legende. Bel album qui nous ramene dans l'antan. Beau travail. Judy

said matts112 2006.01.22 at 08:37:13 PST

I have always loved covered bridges nice work must return to Qc to have another look soon Best regards E

said emilyblue 2005.09.03 at 20:23:34 PDT

Hi Luc, thanks for all of your kind comments in many of my albums. I always love going through yours and especially this one. History was always one of my favorite subjects and going through this album is like going through Canadian History of Covered Bridges...really a great album Luc and there were/are so many!! Hard to believe there are such careless people that would burn down a piece of history. Great to see that most were rebuilt. Great album Luc as are all of yours. Thanks for visiting. Will be back to view yours often. :) Take care, Sharon/Arizona

said sedona908 2005.07.17 at 09:05:55 PDT

Hello Luc and thanks for all the super nice comments on my albums. People may wonder if I pay you to write such wonderful words. That is a joke as you know, but you have not only a knack with words that make a person feel good about themselves. But you take a photo as good as it gets. I really like the old covered bridges here in this album. The way you capture them, some should be placed where the public can view. It is always good to hear from you, good that I have such a great friend there in your wonderful country. I think our President and his administration, has not helped the cause for unity between our two countries. There is no useful purpose served in bashing the French either. More good is done in promoting unity, and peace then in starting a war that most around the world don't approve of. Take care, all the best... Darrell

said worldwide1001 2005.06.10 at 00:11:44 PDT

Hi Luc, thank you for your recent visit and comment in my guest book. Your album of Covered Bridges is so interesting. We don't have them in Australia, which is why they fascinate me. Your photos are both beautiful and well composed. Best wishes from Keith.

said magikeith 2005.02.07 at 01:27:30 PST

Hi Luc, just wanted to stop by and wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Always a pleasure to view your beautiful albums. I have seen several covered bridges and have enjoyed your photos. Luc if you don't mind, I would like to add your email to my Webshots list. If not to much trouble send me your email address...

Luc, All of the covered bridge photos are spectacular. This should be a featured album! We love the newest additions to the album. Covered bridges are so beautiful and we love viewing them. You have captured them wonderfully through your beautiful album. Thanks so much for sharing this awesome album. Bill and Kay

said mountainmystery 2003.10.18 at 21:01:56 PDT

Bonjour Luc! I have been checking out your newest additions. It looks like you had a wonderful tour of the countryside! Everything is so charming and lovely! I really liked the Private Bridge in this album. But all of your additions just add to the cumulative gorgeousness of Quebec!!!! Will there be more??? Take care! Jane

said peonierose 2003.10.15 at 15:52:05 PDT

Bonsoir Luc, Je vois que tu as fait un p'tit tour de Gaspésie récemment. Cette été j'avais remarqué celui de l'Anse à Beau Fils sans être un pont officiel il a une très belle architecture. Merci bien pour ta visite sur le Mushroom album, je l'ai commencé par hasard il y a deux ans lorsque je suis allé à la Station Duchesnay j'en avais photographié plus d'une trentaine à cette époque et les autres proviennent de différents endroits. Je n'y connais rien en mycologie et c'est certain que j'aimerais bien pouvoir les identifiés correctement un de ces jours. Je n'ai pas de projet d'album précis pour l'hiver mais pour l'instant je profite de toute les occasions possible pour rapporter des couleurs d'automne. Bye et à la prochaine et bienvenue dans le club des "featured&qu ot; comme tu le dis si bien. Michel

Hi Luc! Thanks for the gracious guestbook entry; I'm honored you enjoy our photos. It looks like you had a successful vacation with all your new additions to lots of your albums. I guess you mainly stayed in Canada and sought out bridges, churches, barns, and other beautiful scenery on your vacation. I bet you put lots of miles on your car to find all these gorgeous places. Thanks for sharing. Sharon

Belles collections de ponts couverts..si tu veut je peut t'envoyer les ponts de amqui et de Heppel dans la Vallée de la Matapédia????

said nels25 2003.09.28 at 19:39:35 PDT

Votre collections d'anciens et de plus modernes ponts couverts en bois est très intéressante pour nous! Nous sommes pas habitués à en voir beaucoup. En Suisse, il y en a quelque très jolis conservés, mais dans notre région ici, du Sud-Ouest de la France, il y en a beaucoup moins. Votre petit pont couvert de Guthrie est mignon! Les deux ponts (Twins) sont impressionnants! Merci, aussi pour votre gentil commentaire, et un bonjour de nous deux, Henri et Kaethi

said oertlif_2 2003.09.03 at 22:32:05 PDT

Good Day Luc, I'm a fan of your albums, what I call beautiful Art. I love the Covered Bridges/Farms and Barns. Looking forward to the next album. Thank you Diane

Hey Luc! It was good to hear from you. Thanks for the kind comments on my new album. Your Covered Bridges album is so great. Sharon and I wish you would get an album featured. You are such a great photographer and all your albums are so well composed and quality photographs. Your albums are features with us!!! We just recently went back to Indiana to Covered Bridge Country and ran around in the country taking photos of several covered bridges. We haven't had time to get those on Webshots, but I have the feeling Sharon will want those photos for her albums. LOL :-))) Have a great day and thanks again. Bob

Bonjour Luc,Just having another look at your covered bridges and I noticed I hadn't made a comment on this one.Superb album,full of colour and bridges,the like of which I have never seen in this country.Am I right in saying that some of the bridges seem to sag a little in the middle,Oh well it all adds to the age and character of the subjects,lovely album, Best Wishes, Rod.
