In April, I tried and failed to do a photo shoot of this 80-year-old bridge. The weather wasn’t great, but the real problem was that neither the walkway nor the observation tower were open yet for the season.
In July, I tried and succeeded, challenged only by the spider webs that threatened to choke off the walkway.

In situ, it looks almost delicate: It is, after all, covering a big span. Just how big the bridge really is was easier to see from the walkway, where I could get close to the structure supporting the cables.
View from spider-webbed walkway. I’m just sayin’.
View of cable. Oh yeah, and the St. Lawrence River, like that matters.
