A sedate path idles where mighty engines once roared. The bridge stands lonely sentinel, holding memories of its glory days in unloved brick-work. This post is for Cee’s Which Way Challenge. The photograph was taken in Newark on Trent (Nottinghamshire, UK) along the path of the old railway line. The railway itself closed in 1988 and since then … More Cee’s Which Way Challenge 2015: Week #34 – The Old Railway Bridge

I then used the levels adjustment tool to boost the shadows and highlights, added a … More One-Four Challenge: June Week One – Boathouse and Bridge
The sounds of water lapping against the rocky outcrops below drift soothingly to your ears as you traverse the Devil’s Bridge, following in the footsteps of centuries worth of travellers. Your hand trails over the stone balustrade as so many have done before. The structure may be mottled with moss and lichen, it may be … More Cee’s Which Way Challenge 2015: Week #3 – Devil’s Bridge
