In Suspension

Another of the more iconic subjects or scenes in Youngstown's Mill Creek Park. Built in 1895, four years after the Park was established, it is located 1/2 mile downstream of the Mill, and about 1/2 mile from my house. Officially called "The Suspension Bridge," we just called it "The Silver Bridge" when I was a kid. Like the Mill, I've shot this bridge probably 50 different times in all seasons over the past 30 years. This image is from 2010. D700.

Another lovely view from the park, Scott.  The bridges architecture is wonderful and the falls colors contribute a fine warm glow.  The reflection of the entrance is very well placed!..

Very nice peaceful scene Scott. The fall colors and the moss are really vibrant and the smooth water really complements the main attraction, the bridge. I could sit at a park table and watch this scene for hours....

Scott, this is a nice composition with the overhanging limb and the reflection of the spires. The creek looks like a nice place to wander for serene reflections.
