River View


This is a view from the 5th Street Bridge which crosses the Cannon River in Northfield, Minnesota.  It was a calm day, and the surface of the river was like a mirror.  I thought the architecture of the buildings was interesting - they don't look like American buildings, they seem more European in appearance.  Which is why I like this photograph.  The arched bridge in the background also seems European as well.  Kind of a lucky moment on a Sunday afternoon, to find this scene.

Stunning. Hard to believe you are in the same state as photos from grain elevators.

Looks like a composite photo because the buildings make me think of California and the foliage and river look like Massachusetts...It's serene and beautiful. bsk

Thanks to you both! It definitely IS a huge contrast from the industrial architecture to this!
