p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Night Scene over the Cooper River in Charleston, SC


My recent travel to South Carolina included photographing the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge at night. This was taken from the Patriot's Point in Mount Pleasant.
The night I took this lighted bridge was cool and quiet except all those irritating mosquitoes trying to suck my blood!!

This cable-stayed bridge over the Cooper river in Charleston, South Carolina has the main span of the bridge of 471 m. It is the longest cable-stayed span of bridges in the Western hemisphere. The project took 4 years and 6 months, the cost of the building amounted to $836.9 million Bridge was opened in 2005.

I hope you enjoy this image. Thanks!

Thanks camboman for your nice feedback. Yes, it was very cool night with good scattered light from the air pollution.

I've driven over this many times but have yet to stop and shoot it.

This is one of the best images I have seen of this bridge. I'm not sure how you got that color in the sky but it works very well with the color of the bridge lights.

Well done!

Thanks for your wonderful comments. I had to find this shooting place very diligently.
The sky.. yes, I loved when it lit like that.

Thanks Nick for your feedback. I tried not to stay too long there because the bridge lighting would be too bright with the black dark background.

Another nice image from a place I know really well...I have shot that bridge from 3 different places, including this one...the lights from the city really add a lot of color to the scene when the clouds are low. the WB in this one is not what I would have expected.

Nice capture. I have photographed the Cooper River Bridge (as it is locally called) many times from various vantage points, and I am still waiting for the perfect image. It is one of my favorite bridges, but I am biased since I was one of the bridge engineers involved with the design work.

Oh.. this is called the Cooper River Bridge.. easier for me to pronounce!!
This IS a beautiful bridge, indeed!
It is nice to have good comments for the bridge engineer!

Probably my favorite subject.

I didn't expect that color either.

Thank you for sharing.
