What the photograph shows

Concrete pillars stand in the river and carry girders across it. The girders sit in shade, and green trees hang over the structure from the banks, so the bridge is framed by greenery rather than set against open sky.

What this record looks at

  • Where each pillar leaves the water.
  • How the shaded girders sit above the pillars.
  • How closely the trees crowd the structure.
Bridge piers stand in water, with painted clearance markings on one pillar.
