10th April - Welland-Harringworth Viaduct by pamknowler

10th April - Welland-Harringworth Viaduct

Topic of the Day - Arch 100/365
(Def best looked at against black)
This is the Welland/Harringworth Viaduct. It was completed in 1878 and is the largest masonary viaduct across a valley in Britain. It has 82 arches each 40 feet wide. This is the view driving down from Seaton Village. It was sunny at home but when I arrived here it was misty and the shots looked very disapointing. I edited this in Silver efex Pro and managed to get some detail out of the mist.

Day 100 today - WOW I have surprised myself. I am really enjoying myself and much of it is due to the wonderful support from you all!! Not only have I found a great photographic challenge but I feel I have made some great new friends!! Thank you for all your comments - they mean a lot to me!!
That's a beautiful location and I love the way you captured it. The mist gives it a vintage feel. Lots of arches for the word!

@moreyoulessme thank you so much Jerri!

Great arch photo but it looks weird to me. It looks like the arches have been added in!
April 13th, 2013  
I wonder why that is Kathy - perhaps because it was misty and I increased the contrast a lot. I was just pleased to be able to get one shot that you could see the arches!!
April 13th, 2013  
Beautiful shot and like the way you have framed it.
