Bayonne Bridge - a photo on Flickriver

Bayonne Bridge

            From the archives. I'm not sure that I can adequately explain the thought process that went into taking this photo. I hadn't uploaded anything to Flickr for a while, which always gets me itching to go out with my camera. It had been raining hard all the previous night. I'd also been working all day, despite it being Presidents' Day, a holiday for most workers here, which put me in a somewhat irritated mood... 

So out I went, late in the afternoon, in search of somewhere new to take photos. And as such, I ended up in the middle of a swamp, with a bag full of lenses and my tripod, photographing arguably Staten Island's least glamorous bridge under threatening, overcast skies. 

I was so muddy by the time I returned home I had to throw everything I was wearing straight into the washing machine - forgetting I'd left a 512MB compact-flash card in the pocket of my jeans until half way through the cycle. And yes, it still works. Consider that a strong endorsement for Sandisk cards...
