Those of you who remember my Los Angeles River project may also remember how the whole thing nearly disintegrated into The Bridges of Los Angeles County.
Well I've been bitten again...The Colorado Street Bridge,built out of concrete in 1913 and rebuilt in 1993 enters Pasadena from the West.
To me it has a sort of beaux arts/steampunk vibe...let's see what you think...

I call this shot "Bridge Music"...

Speaking of Steampunk, this one makes me think of an aircraft carrier built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel...
