So that's what the big crane was for!

I've made several trips into York this week to record the replacement of Scarborough Bridge ( http://365project.org/fishers/365/2015-02-16 and http://365project.org/fishers/365/2015-02-19).

I wasn't entirely happy with the shots I took of the old bridge spans being lifted out, so I was hoping for better results when the new spans were lowered into place.

Sometimes things don't go to plan. The engineers were so far ahead of schedule that I completely missed seeing and shooting the new spans going in, so I've fallen back on this shot of one of the old spans being lifted out. The bridge location is off to the left of the shot. Sadly, it was a very grey day when I took this.

I love the reflections - great shot.

[Judith Johnson]

Ah well at least you have a record of the occasion and the reflections are good.

[Molly]

Sorry your plans were thwarted (engineering works and weather!), but there are some lovely reflections in this shot.

[Lynne Hart]

Like the reflections, nice shot.

Great shot to see it at work. Love the reflections in the canal

Something about that colossal product of modern engineering behind the tranquil row of houses is interesting.

Great shot

[Pete Roberts]

Good reflections you captured there Ian. Good shapes and angles too

Thank you all for your comments, I have enjoyed reading them - this rebuilding project has been a fascinating project to watch and take photos of.
