The Old Bridge
What is it about old bridges that makes them so romantic? Or am I the only one who thinks so?
I've read that Kentucky has a lot of great old bridges and there is even a driving tour that I've been meaning to go and do one weekend, but with just 2 weeks to go here, it isn't going to happen. I'll just have to be satisfied with a random photo here or there.
This feels like the perfect song for an old bridge in the south, a little retro but full of beauty.

heart it big time~
That's so pretty!
You're not alone, I think they are very romantic. Maybe it's a Bridges of Madison County thing. I think that movie, and especially the book, are super romantic! Beautiful photo.
Please share, if you play with the texture from my blog, I'd love to see what you do.
i was going to say....
of course they are romantic~
haven't you seen bridges of madison county...
but alas~ my line was already used.
ha!!
love that song.
retro can be a good thing.
wow! i love love this photo =) it's so alive! i love bridges coz i find the lines or beam forms interesting
I think bridges are great too.
I agree, there's something so romantic about an old bridge- is it the thought of all the people who have crossed it or stood looking down at the water beneath?
I'm not so keen on suspension bridges though, they terrify me when they sway !
do you know, when i saw this I instantly thought of robert redford standing there, a great shot and makes me want to watch the film again.
totally agree! i just wrote a whole guest post about bridges...to be revealed soon.
What a beautiful old bridge!
Have a good day, friend!
I grew up in rural Ohio. There were several covered bridges, and one just outside the tiny town we lived in. I was so disappointed to find it gone when I went back to visit a year ago. I don't have one photo of it, and it was on my "must have" list. I love bridges, but not going across high ones.
ok, jamie ...let's talk AMAZING ...
it is YOU through and through, yup!
{ok, i am "supposed" to be painting a door
right now, but gosh, i'd rather be visiting you!}
the harmony these guys sing in this song
go right from the tip of my head
down to the tip of my boots ...
and spins around my soul on the way by : )
what a perfectly perfect song for your
beautiful image ...
and say, just another thing ...
'bridges over madison county'
was the ONLY book i have read
in record time ... and i swear
i read it standing up in my kitchen ...
as i gobbled it up!
i am sorry i don't get here as often
as i should and want to ...
but you truly and really are
an AMAZING soul ...
just so blessed to know you!

Love this bridge picture....and I know what it is that makes them so romantic. Ever since I saw Bridges of Madison County....that's it. One of those movies that if you start to watch it you can't stop.
I love your image...stunning.
