FMTSO- BRIDGES


Welcome to My Town Friday Shoot Out.
This week's theme is all about bridges.
This is our first shoot out in black and white.

The picture above is a photo of the cover of my favorite book,
The Bridges Of Madison County.
I thought it deserved a starring role in this week's post
because I think it is one of the most beautiful love stories of all time.
And of course, the title fits the theme of our shoot out.


A bridge over imported water.
This is Town Square in Las Vegas


This bridge suspends above the Rogue River in Grants Pass, Oregon


Another bridge somewhere in Southern Oregon


This is a bridge that goes from one treehouse to another in Cave Junction, Oregon.


Vanderbilt University Bridge
Nashville, TN
My very favorite place to visit.  I love this town.


Loretta Lynn Ranch in Hurricane Mills, TN
Another beautiful place to visit.


Nashville, TN


Cumberland River in Downtown Nashville, TN
It is a most awesome sight.


A decorative yard bridge in my neighborhood.

I not only love taking photos of bridges but I like what bridges represent.
I love all the metaphors and analogies of the word, bridge.

Let's bridge the gap of our friendship.
Don't burn too many bridges.
Now that's a bridge over troubled water.
We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
I'm building a bridge to your heart.
Go jump off a bridge.

Ah, there are so many.

To walk the bridges in blogosphere, click here and you will be in awe.

To my love:  If you build me a bridge, I'll cross it to be by your side.

  10. You're right; the metaphors associated with bridges are really good ones and I'm glad you listed some of them. I enjoyed your bridge study; you've proved that no matter where you go, bridges are built. (And it looks like a drive down to Cave Junction is in my plans now!)

  17. Turns out my family came from Ireland and made Maury County TN their home, so maybe they crossed a few of those bridges!

    Love the black and whites!
