Hi Myrl....your pictures are always so interesting.  You see things a little bit differently and capture the scene in ways most people wouldn't see.  You have a good eye and this is a terrific shot....and I don't know where this is.

What a cool perspective of the bridge, with the reflection and all.  You have a wonderful eye.

Janice and Joanna - Thank you Kind Lady!

Connie - Pictures are my main matrix for memories.  And Happy Sunday to you too!

Shiela, Marc, Sharon, Tony and Gail - The picture was taken beneath the new bridge span over the American River in Folsom.  I had actually gotten up before sunrise to capture a picture of the Old Rainbow Bridge a few hundred yards away.  However, when I arrived, I realized that particular bridge would photograph much better at sunset.  However, this shot of this span, was nicer at sunrise.

Kenneth, Andrea, Rita, Ann and Leolinda - Thank you for your kind words!

Myrl,

What a wonderful photo!  I like the angle from which you captured this one and how you got a full circle with the reflection in the water.  Very creative!

Thanks for sharing the location of that bridge.  I'm coming doen there later in the week.  Hope to check it out.

Both the bridge and your photo are a work of art.

So, WHERE is this bridge, Myrl? Have I been over it but never under it? Don't keep me in suspense.

Hey, I've got share with you -- not that you're likely to ever have this problem -- but if you put the word "porno" into your blog title, it doesn't get picked up by Twitter. LOL.

Myrl--I love the tranquility under the bridge.  If it was still Sunday I would sit on a rock and just enjoy the day.

Jackie, Sandy, Kim and Kevin - I'm so glad the picture was to your liking!

Gerry - When I saw the reflection in the water that completed the circle, I couldn't believe my good fortune:-)

Jim - Old Town Folsom is a delightful place to visit.  The bridge is right there in the Village.  Also, if you are coming all this way, make sure to check out Old Sacramento as well.

Elizabeth - Are you telling me there's no twittering porno. . .LOL:-)

Mary - It was really tempting.  There is a big rock there to sit and pond on. . .All I needed was a latte'.

Oooooh, I like that. I have a collection of spans myself. I should do a slide show on them. Hmmm. Good point.

I'm waaaaaaaaaaay behind on my comment visits right now, so I'm not camping out here like I normally would do. I don't want you to be sad and blue, though, so I have a gift for you, and I'll be back soon to camp out. Make sure you use the mouse-over.

 Lovely roses for a lovely lady

Great bridge!  Myrl even Izzy likes that one and he isn't real crazy about bridges.

Jack and Izzy - As uncomfortable about bridges as Izzy may be, I suspect here at it's base and at waters edge, he might be more excited.  There's a little sandy beach, and shallow water.  A great place for a dog to splash around.  I haven't heard from you two in awhile.  I hope you are both well, as well as that new young female that came to live with you:-)
