I like those shots - nicely balanced.

Here are a couple from the frozen capital - taken at around 5 in the morning:

Here is a bridge I took yesterday. This is Bare Island near Sydney, which is where they filmed the bike chase in Mission Impossible II and the site of an historic fort.

It was pretty stormy yesterday in Sydney, you can see the yellow/green tint building for the incoming storm. This was in a gap between the showers.

Where's that building at 300+?

I'm been on a similar one in Alaska. We didn't go over the worst bridges - when they revised the track and made a new bridge they sometimes left the rickety one in place. It was a little disconcerting to approach something which would clearly not support a laden swallow, only to keep going along the valley wall a bit further and cross on a newer bridge.

Cheers, Steve

This is Commonwealth Bridge in Canberra (I think).
Shot on Kodak film that expired in the '80s, printed in the darkroom on Kodak paper that expired in the '90s, using a printing method called lith printing.

Some fabulous looking works of engineering.
The railway bridge over the Algebuckina Waterhole on the Neales River south of Oodnadatta, is a ripper too!
Unfortunately I don't have any digital pics of it.
