Step into my gallery of bridges! I've got a collection that's all about the grandeur of some of the world's most famous bridges. Think Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge, Golden Gate Bridge, and Oakland Bay Bridge – each a marvel in its own right. Capturing their beauty? Now that's a thrilling challenge!



It's not just about clicking a button. It's an art of patience and timing, finding those perfect spots, those golden moments at sunrise and sunset, all while playing a game of hide-and-seek with the ever-present tourists. It's about embracing the adventure, like scaling steep terrains or finding that precarious balance on a small beach rock, camera in hand, as the waves put on a dramatic show around me.



Let's not forget the excitement of dodging the playful waves! While capturing the Brooklyn Bridge, I witnessed five photographers get a little too close, their cameras making an unplanned swim. But not me! Sure, my shoes got a playful splash, but my camera? Safe and sound, always ready for the next shot.



Each bridge has its own story, its own charm. From the elegance of the Golden Gate against a fiery sunset to the historic majesty of the Brooklyn Bridge in the morning mist, every photograph is a testament to the bridge's character and the adventure behind the lens.
