About the Image(s)
Recently I took off to NH to photograph about twenty covered bridges. a photo friend from the area asked if I had ever seen the famous stone walls of Hillsboro. My negative answer got me a two hour guided tour of four of these iconic structures - none of them were supported by any bonding agents!

Well done! It is beautiful. Posted: 11/11/2023 22:49:53
An amazing feat, to build a bridge without using mortar. Lovely time of year for such an image. Posted: 11/12/2023 09:44:07
AND, they are still standing!! Posted: 11/14/2023 01:50:14
Wonderful autumn colours plus an interesting bridge. The image appears quite soft to me and wondering if you were using a tripod? Posted: 11/13/2023 20:44:45
No tripod, Deb, as we were on the move to shoot these four stone bridges so I could head back home. Posted: 11/14/2023 01:49:49
A well composed picture, tree on the left leading to the water under the bridge and then yellow trees leading my eye out. Posted: 11/16/2023 20:56:26
Beautiful! Nice composition. I wonder what would. happen if you darkened everything around the bridge and water to give the image more contrast. The color would then become more of a border around the main focus of the image. Just a thought. Posted: 11/17/2023 16:03:08
There is one thing I failed to mention above, and that of the water being blue. I'm not a fan of blue water (except for those places on the earth that have blue water, such as glacial and in the Caribbean). This looks like a scene that might benefit from trying different angles, and maybe using some ND filters to slow the water, if you enjoy those types of images. Such a lovely spot! I do enjoy your composition. Posted: 11/30/2023 13:25:57
