Bridges of the World, Part 2


I photographed the Verrazano-Narrows bridge on the way down to Virginia, at night, trying for a moody shot. On the way home, the light was just right for photographing one of the towers in daylight. I left the cars out of the picture, so just the structure of the bridge was visible. It really is a stunning structure. Years ago I proposed a photo essay on the bridges of New York. And the stupid editor rejected it! Are you kidding? Everyone who lives here has to cross bridges to get off Long Island. Anyhow, my dream was to be able to climb up to the top of the Verrazano-Narrows bridge, with an escort, of course, for one of my photos. Oh well.
