Cool thread. Since I've been beaten to it with The Golden Gate, Tower Bridge and Sydney Harbour (The shot in the fog is most awesome!) here's a few not quite as well known, footbridges count too right?! cheers Vin.

Beautiful. Love the long exposure on the water and the lights. Star filter, I assume? No EXIF visible... can you give some details on the setup and exposure?
Thanks for the comments Rodolfo. No star filter used at all, just small apertures
Here's the Astoria-Megler bridge... all 5.3 miles of it, across the Columbia river (which is less than a mile and a half out to the Pacific Ocean), linking Astoria, Oregon andWashington state. Lewis and Clark camped on the Washington side in a small spot on the river that they called "a Dismal Nitch " , as it rained for over a month there.. well, it is the Pacific Northwest
Uncropped. Dust Bunny removed and USM of 25, .3, 0. EXIF should be intact.
The only traffic on this bridge these days are foot, ATV and snowmobiles. Large rocks placed at either end block anything larger. It is getting old. This bridge resides some 20-30 metres upriver of the Stoby Dam.
Uncropped. Some fooling around. Still much to learn about selective colours. USM 25, .3, 0. EXIF should be intact.
This dam is a control dam which regulates the water levels of Vermilion Lake about 45km north of Sudbury. The dam was totally rebuilt sometime since 1998 which is when I left the lake. My oldest still lives there with her family. Was up visiting about 2 weeks ago and just had to get out and visit the old haunts.
The Dam used to span the river. It had great wooden beams that were raised and lowered as needed to regulate both the lake level and water flow down stream. It was owned and operated by the INCO mining co. but suspect the Ministry of Natural Resources is in charge now.
