A Presidential Bridge?

This is an old railroad bridge that is by the Clinton Library (you can see the proximity in this picture here). In May, construction began to transform it into the Clinton Presidential Park Bridge. As you can see here, it is fenced right now & construction continues. It should be interesting to see if the finished product looks different. I'm sure the grass will be lush & green by then.

One more good snow...

No, we haven't had another good snow, I'm just wanting one more. We're supposed to get to 60 degrees this weekend, which will be nice, but I still need one more good snow before we forget about winter all together. 

I really like the way the green stands out in this picture too.

Winter Wonderland

We have a trail by our house that we went walking on yesterday. This bridge isn't normally very pretty, but I liked the way the green stood out among all the white. I also love that there's a snow covered log in the background.

Big Dam Bridge

This is the biking & pedestrian bridge between Little Rock & North Little Rock. I'm really fighting the urge to talk about the Big Dam Headache I have right now, so I'll keep it short. I love these flags that are in the middle of the bridge.

Blue skys & bridges 2

I like this shot, even though the river is so muddy.

Blue skys & bridges

Yep, that pretty much sums it up. I took this on the pedestrian bridge at the River Market. I like the lines, but the OCD side of me realizes that I should have lined it up much better.

Fly Away

This is a sculpture in the River Market area of Little Rock. It looked neat and I liked the view of the river, but it wasn't until after I downloaded the pictures that I really paid attention to what it was. I think it's pretty neat.

Cable

Sometimes (most of the time) my favorite images are accidents. I was taking pictures of the cables on the pedestrian bridge and took this as an afterthought. It turned out to be more interesting than the others.

The Big City

April Fools! This was actually taken in my town - it's a pedestrian bridge that goes over the river. I happened to be in the area at night and thought it looked sort of pretty.

** update: In looking at this again, I realize just how much "noise" is in the picture. I still like the bridge though.

Another view

This a better shot of the pond in the previous picture. The Koi are all hibernating right now.

Proud to be an American

I don't consider myself especially patriotic, but there's so much about New York City that makes me feel so proud and blessed to be an American - between Ellis Island and the stories of immigrants to the site of the World Trade Center, it makes me see the flag so differently.

Liberty Island

Brooklyn Bridge

The Walkway

I use this walkway every day when I go to work. I took this on Thursday, when it was so horribly cold and rainy. I'm not really sure what I was going for, but I ended up liking the dull color with the other colored buildings. I'm hoping this weekend to take some bright, colorful pictures. This drab theme is getting.... well, drab!

Rain Rain Go Away

With all the rain we've had lately, I felt like we needed something pretty & sunny.  This bridge is by the covered bridge at Burns Park. I had never seen it, but then again, it had been a long time since I'd been that way. I love the sunlight, along with the lily pads in the water.

Bridges of Madison County... or Pulaski County

Our mission this weekend was to help my daughter with her bug collection, which meant I got to get out and take a lot of pictures. Our first stop was the covered bridge in Burns Park. I used to be so afraid of this bridge. I'm not sure if it was The Legend of Sleepy Hollow association or something else, but now I think it is simply beautiful.

I love the reflection in this shot. It was a great location overall - we found several bugs here!
