Rahway River Bridge

previous / next

This is a shot of the bridge in Mohawk Park that crosses the Rahway River. I remember when I was little this bridge replaced one that was a little further upstream and used to wash away fairly regularly when the water would get high. I don't think the water has ever breached this bridge although I imagine it's come close a time or two.

I want to apologize for my absence recently. I've been suffering from a bad cold and just haven't felt up to posting or visiting. I do appreciate all of your visits. I hope to get around tomorrow if I feel better.

I also want to apologize for the comment issue that was pointed out to me. Apperently Blogger has done away with the URL line in comment form which really annoys me as well as others who use Blogger. At any rate I found out that they have a new form in draft mode that uses "Open ID". I don't know much about it but I do know that when I tried to use it on my site it did not work well at all so I've gone back to the "standard new" form until I get something else figured out. In the meantime all I can suggest is to use the form such as it is and include your URL in the body of the form or in the nickname. I know it's a bit of a pain and I really appreciate it for those willing to put up with this temporary (hopefully) inconvenience.

Seen from here it seems a beautiful (stable) bridge, in a splendid park. Ciao.

Very nice colors and I like the touch of fog in the background.

That cold has finally come around and got a hold of me, too. It's too bad I can't install antivirus software on myself to keep it away. I hope you're feeling better (sniff, cough...aaachoo!).

Hope you feel better soon. These bugs seem to like to hang on and on...We are at the end of the 2nd week for my poor Hubby. Absolutely not fun.
Love this picture, the colors and perspective. You have a wonderful eye.
Your Parallel Universe is the one I have the URL problem with but I'm hanging in there cause I love your blogs.

Good morning Laurie, I'm making the rounds here after several busy days, and as always, you don't disappoint. Nice composition. I really envy the clarity you get. I have to fight for this sort of thing. I do believe my next camera is going to be a sony, it accomodates my old Maxxum lenses and is image stabilized in the body.

Anyway, nice shot.
