The Eye by pflaume

The Eye

While crossing the footbridge on my regular walking path, it occurred to me that I had never peeked underneath. I ventured down an embankment and was greeted with this interesting view. I liked the curving lines of the bridge underbelly and the trees and reflections in the distance. I see an eye looking back at me. Do you?

For Black & White Wednesday (BWW).
