A Bridge Over Solid Water
The Ravenel (Cooper River Bridge) in South Carolina has the longest cable-stay span in North America and reportedly cost more than $630 million to build. The suspension bridge features two diamond shaped towers. I shot this photo from the Charleston side of the bridge, near the city's aquarium. What attracted me to the scene was the span of the bridge as well as the way the water looked. It looked almost solid, as if it had a definable shape and texture.

Under the bridge...fantastic! The bridge itself is magnificent, but seeing it from below gives a whole new perpective to the architecture and detail involved.
I watched this bridge go up...its nice to see visitors appreciate as much as us locals.
