Riegelsville Roebling Bridge
previous / nextI recently discovered a backlog of photos that I had not posted, so the next few posts will be an effort to get them off of my pending list.
This is a shot of the Riegelsville Roebling Bridge in Riegelsville PA. I shot this on an early September morning outing with Mark, Betsy and Russ. It was the day after really heavy rains and it started out really cold and dreary but it did warm up nicely as the day went on. Of course the morning light was rather dull and flat.
Nikon D200
Nikkor 28-70mm f2.8
1/125 second
F/6.3

I come from your aminus3 photoblog where I red your story also.We are the same age.I also have 3 kids, well Impressed by the passion you invest in photography. I love this bridge here.
Have a great day
Very nice photo, I like the green tones from the bridge.
Brian @ www.brianschen.com
beautifully composed shot
What a nice perspective! I like so muche the soft pink color of the sky...
Wow, amazing old bridge! It must be a great trip :)
I like the pink tones, too - most unexpected, I guess because of the green bridge. Lovely scene and great composition.
I like the darker feel to this photo. Works well with the type of bridge.
Thanks for looking at my blog. I am so excited my D700 came yesterday! The low light capabilities are pretty amazing. Do you have any good tips to get the most out of this great camera.
@Mr. Mapper...That is awesome! You will love it. I'm not sure what you were shooting with before but assuming it was a Nikon D200 or D300 it is not too much different in terms of the menues. You will be able to get the hang of them pretty quickly. A couple of things are relocated from what the D200 had but I got the hang of it pretty quickly.
I've used auto ISO on my D200 quite a lot when shooting indoors particularly when shooting for orchestras. The D700 is so awesome in low light that I often just leave it set to Auto ISO and I don't worry about noise with that camera so I can leave it set there which really frees me up to work with my aperture choices and shutter speeds without worry about changing the ISO. It is a great camera you will love it.
Oh one thing before I forget make sure it comes with the most recent firmware. It updated a few weeks ago. Not sure what the new version is but it did address a few issues. Updating is easy if it wasn't already done so don't sweat it if you have to do it.
THis looks like a strong structure! And you captured it really well!
Love the perspective of this shot, and the edgyness too. Always a pleasure to see your work.
Very nice processing and beautiful old bridge.
I like the processing on this photo. Cool looking bridge.
Very nice lines. We like the detail in the bridge and the decision to leave the other bank in the dark, it makes for a more dramatic composition.
..and we agree on your D700 notes...
I noticed the D200 right away and wondered if you were using it as a backup. The perspective is superb. Excellent composition too, a beautiful shot of this fascinating bridge. One of my favorite subjects to shoot.
Beautifull shot and perfect framing
Love this sort of processing. Mooday!
it does look like a very old bridge.. nice shot.. :)
A fine morning shot of this foot bridge. I like the angle you chose. It helps that there are a couple of houses in the dark trees on the side. Well done.
very nice details and great traitment to this picture , great work !!
very thoughtful postprocessing, you gave the picture that vintage feeling, carefully avoiding to overdose or glide off into sentimentality.
The way you have treated the colors and light in this one, gives it so much atmosphere! Love the look here!
