The Bridge of Reality and the Spires of Night

The Bridge of Reality and the Spires of Night - B/W - HDRI - Mary Avenue Pedestrian Bridge - Cupertino, CA

This is a pedestrian bridge that crosses over I-280 at Mary Ave. in Cupertino, CA.

I was surprised and delighted to find such a marvelous example of engineering and design in this application. The spires and lighting are dramatic and inspiring. I have seen other images of this bridge on the web, but none of them have been of the bridge in it’s full glory at night.

It was great to get out and shoot something for no other purpose than to interpret it’s form and function from my own perspective, with no concern for a client or expectations from outside parties. It’s creating spectacular images like this, of grand and dramatic structures that are well designed in both form and function that caused me to fall in love with photography back in the 1980’s.

I do love my work and find it very fulfilling but this is simply fun.
