The Old Severn Bridge in the Mist

[Actinia]

This photo of the Old Severn Bridge was taken in 1967, and scanned from a 35mm slide, so the quality leaves something to be desired.

Any C & C?

Nice. I would have moved it up slightly to avoid the ground at the bottom.

For the past 50 years or so, my photography has been to record what is there, rather than to envisage a composition. In this case, we had been fossil-hunting on the shore below that morning. (We found a Pleisiosaur vertebra.) So, the shore did mean something to me then. I am now trying to look beyond the record, and seeing how I can compose my photos.

I love the old cars. Certainly a nice start in terms of leading lines, etc., but I think the real appeal here is the age & context.
