    Love the composition of the photo and that swan!

    It’s really a beautiful composition with the swan in one corner, the bridge in another and the river flower out through branches to the right. Such a serene landscape. A little pity with the wire crossing the picture, but I guess it would be to much to ask to cut it down… What really makes the picture is of course the gracious stance of the swan.

      Thanks Otto, it was a lovely scene.

      It is a shame about the wire crossing the photo, I didn’t see it on the day. I did think of cropping the photo, but I thought it wouldn’t work as well.

      The photo really needed to be taken from a lower angle so that the wire didn’t feature in the photo.

    A place have not been. Nice to see your photo which is a different angle from most pics one sees of the bridge.

    It’s the first iron bridge ever built in the world, Cherry, so that makes this very special!

      It is a very special bridge and I went to school just up the road from it and learned all about the industries and the Darby’s :-)
