First time for me participating in a Photo Challenge event. I’ve seen plenty of these posted on the blogs I follow. Though marvelling at the originality of some of the entries, I’d never felt compelled to get my own feet wet until now.
Well, you see, three days ago, I took a picture of a fancy modern footbridge here in Toledo, which I cross regularly to get to a friend’s house. I’d taken pictures of it before, but this is the first one I snapped LOOKING UP, and when Debbie from Travel With Intent announced her photo challenge “Look Up, Look Down” yesterday, I just couldn’t resist 🙂
If you want to see what the bridge looks like from another perspective, click here. Incidentally, those pictures were taken LOOKING DOWN from the block of flats on the right-hand side (in the picture above), where my friend lives.
Thank you for joining in. Looking up has produced a beautiful and interesting photograph. I hope you’ll feel similarly inspired in future weeks.

Thanks, I shall do my best! I couldn’t see at all what I was taking at the time, coz of the sun blinding me 😉

Nice perspective. Are you still seeing sun spots?

Yes, it took me ages to recover colour vision afterwards…

This one is not taken by me http://pinterest.com/pin/272045633714714810/ but it’s the bridge I pass every weekend on the way to the beach in Moscow (clearly leaving my camera behind) and your own photo reminded me of it.

That photo gives me a little vertigo, but it’s great.
When I lived at Krylatskoye last year, I always thought I would walk over that red bridge and photograph it, but (alas) laziness won that battle.

Awesome, now I dont feel so guilty. Btw, I am at Serebryanny Bor now every Sat and Sun. And nursing epic burns in-between.

I’ve got to get out there when I get back (next-next Monday!) and before it gets chilly!

Good luck with that. I’m already walking around with the Game of Thrones mantra of ‘The Winter is Coming’
