Trinity River Bridge ~ Margret Hunt Hill Bridge

Calatrava's work includes three bridges that will eventually span the Trinity River in Dallas, Texas. The first bridge, the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, named after donor Margaret Hunt Hill, was planned to open for traffic in March 2012.

I really like the perspective, the bridge and its lines and the concept of the sun. For me, it might be a stronger comp if the sun were off to the right of the bridge or maybe coming through the support lines? As presented, I still like the image though. Good choice to go B&W, too.

If I was a structural engineer, I'd probably appreciate this even more :smile:
As it is, the form & design is very nicely seen from this perspective, and holds great interest Rick.
Well done! :toast:

Unique and very interesting - congrats on the WP!
To me, it could use a slight CW rotation to straighten the vertical cables.
