I may just have never looked up at the structure at just the right time I suppose, but what always struck me about the Tappan Zee is the way the long low portion of the bridge flows into the higher more traditional superstructure. Having checked with <A HREF="http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=Tappan+Zee+Bridge&gbv=2" REL="nofollow">Google Images</A> now though, this could be the TZ, the photos I saw show steelwork much denser than what I remember. Of course I mainly saw it from either a car or a small boat, so with a different perspective.<BR/><BR/>Hmmm...<BR/><BR/>Whatever it is, it does work very well in sepia.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02409530202277375625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717405548205026477.post-30296818584886958332009-03-05T02:00:00.000-05:002009-03-05T02:00:00.000-05:00wow, looks like a meccano modelwow, looks like a meccano modelShadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05999801833389058410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717405548205026477.post-40544619900871725742009-03-04T23:46:00.000-05:002009-03-04T23:46:00.000-05:00I didn't play this week but I had to drop by and s...I didn't play this week but I had to drop by and see!!<BR/><BR/>Also I do believe you visited my WW today I am no longer sure.<BR/><BR/>I had 12 comments checked to publish and then I came across one that was spam. without thinking the others were already checked....I hit the reject button.<BR/><BR/>Well zipppppp I lost them all. now I have no clue who visited!!<BR/><BR/>Great shot...I have been across this bridge many times with my hubby in his big rig.<BR/><BR/>Happy Wednesday night..almost Thursday!:-)Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378896151545384221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717405548205026477.post-91780218659389009152009-03-04T21:44:00.000-05:002009-03-04T21:44:00.000-05:00Very cool pic, it does have a vintage look to it.Very cool pic, it does have a vintage look to it.Jeri ~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07129273538085731025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717405548205026477.post-9862439519109541212009-03-04T20:13:00.000-05:002009-03-04T20:13:00.000-05:00What are the chances that you and Mary would post ...What are the chances that you and Mary would post the same subject matter.
