Phil Sutters' photos with the keyword: swing bridge

I have taken very few photographs in the past three months. I happened to be near the swing bridge when the road traffic lights started flashing and the horns sounded to warn that the road would close and the bridge would open to allow this ship to pass downstream. Very few ships call at the North Quay these days, so I hurried up the bridge and took a few shots with my compact camera, which lives in my backpack.

The two yachts were heading down stream having passed through the swing bridge, presumably having been in one of the boat yards around Denton Island. The cabin cruiser was heading towards the bridge and was seen to head into the branch of the Ouse where the boatyards are. The items of heavy plant on the far shore were clearing away the former railway engine sheds and other old dockside building, prior to major redevelopments that are planned for the port.
