Millau Bridge

Is this your Happy Fence Wednesday photo, Nick? ;-)
Twixt road and rail a lovely view of the viaduct.

Hi dear LGM Hard o glimpse but there is a river to the left of the railway line too. I just thought it was time to upload a image or two of my favourite bridge. I remember first seeing it when they were building the columns as I crawled through Millau in the then almost perpetual traffic jam.
I have taken shots of the viaduct from most of the possible positions x

Well done!!!! Great shot!!

Thank you ~~~

I have seen a lot of photos of this place, I would love to see it in the reality.

Dani it is well worth the trip to see it and to drive over it ~ it is a wonderful work of engineering at its very best ~~~

A great structure indeed Nick .. the view from up there must be quite good too

Best wishes ... Steve

Hi Steve, the view from the bridge is fantastic alright. There have been a couple of TV programmes covering the building of this viaduct, don't know if you have ever seen them.

All the best

Wow! Where everything crosses and every mode of transport!! Superb shot Nick :-))

Hi Rosa, I love this sort of shot with every mode of transport crossing at different levels :) & to have such a shot including my favourite bridge is the tops ~ So thanks for your perceptive appraisal ~ Warm wishes ~ Nick

Top shot! Famous bridge. Glad to see it from this angle!

Thanks Andy it is on the way to you :~)

Excelente vista de esa gran obra de ingeniería.

Thank you :)

Hi Nick. Another great shot here. Did you see the documentary on building this bridge recently on Quest? (Great Bridges). Love to shoot it too, especially from high, whilst the valley is shrouded in mist, which it does quite often I believe. Even better in such conditions and then a sunrise. Wow!

Cheers, Herb

Hi Herb, yes I saw the programme :~) I'm pleased that you are a fellow enthusiast ~ All the very best ~ Nick

Hi Nick,

Another well composed picture, which I like. Certainly you could spend a week here making interesting pictures!

Best Wishes (and HFF for the safety fence)

I have never stayed longer than one night at Millau at a time.. but I have done the one night stay several times usually in late Spring or Autumn ~~~ Thanks for your good wishes and visit ~ Have a good weekend ~ Nick

Hi dear Nick,

A great structure and a wonderful geometry here!!

I like very much!
