Local footbridge

[Dave Farnes]

Well, it is no Queensferry bridge, but it took lot of engineering to make it wheelchair accessable.

 

[Pete Askew]

What a super study, Dave. That first composition, while unusual, is very effective I think.

 

[Dave Farnes]

Thank you Pete. It is a huge thing by local scale, hard to know what to "do" with it photographically.

I like the way they used rough sawn planks for the shuttering, leaving the woodgrain imprint in the concrete. Same technique as used in the Royal Festival Hall.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

You are right, Dave: it ain't no Forth Bridge, but it's just as useful and photogenic, as you have proved.
