Awesome view and a superb capture! :) That bridge looks a little lightweight for such a big span.

WORLD HIGHEST SUSPENSION BRIDE.... YA GOTTA GET SUSPENSION IN THERE... there are other bridges that beat it but aren't suspension - I know, it's my favorite bride... I've been to it quite a bit in my life time... I just found out that the Movie Town known as BUCKSIN JOE is now owned privately and it's not open to the public - that sucks... I heard this last month that the small train that runs by the bridge is now owned by the same guy that owns BUCKSKIN JOE - SO the public won't be allowed to ride that anymore as of last month - my Brother was one of the last to ride it.... My Mother bought property near there, so hearing that the public can't use what has always been there before I was around really makes my family sad.... Did you ride the go karts? did you Slide the big slide? I've rarely lost on that go kart track... as a matter of fact, I probably haven't lost in over 20 years. Thanks for this shot, it's gorgeous.

A spectacular POV, image and bridge - but this looks a tad on the light side ... in my opinion - maybe it even sways a little in very windy conditions? I would be soooo scared - or just get a bad case of vertigo! but what a magic shot Bob, BB
