Senator William V. Roth, Jr. Bridge

Drove home from Ocean City, Maryland this afternoon. In taking Delaware Rt. 1, you cross the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal on this modernistic bridge opened in 1995. The bridge is a concrete and steel cable-stayed bridge that spans almost a mile (1.5 km). Photo is completely sooc
Wonderful lines and DOF! Love this!

The lines are really amazing looking and if I wouldn't know better I say the background shows us a church.. part of the bridge I guess.

@cscecil Thank you Carolyn, the lines are what makes me enjoy this bridge

You have had some amazing shots lately Harry! :)
February 28th, 2012  
@netkonnexion when Harry says there is no place to stop, I actually get on the highway with the ramp at the base of the bridge going uphill so I always miss the good angles.

Harry, excellent job, but I hope your lovely wife was driving and not you. I got so much flack for taking a photo of this bridge in case I was driving.
