Red accents, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

A closer look at some of the ornamentation on the LRT bridge over the Bow River just south of Sunnyside station, just as a southbound Red Line train is whizzing by.

City of islands

A metro train passes over a bridge in one of the older parts of central Stockholm. This image is from my visit there in summer 2014.

San Francisco, California

Waiting for the last of the morning fog/haze to clear up, while looking across San Francisco Bay by the Bay Bridge last week.

Bath, England, U.K.

The Pulteney Bridge and the weir on the River Avon in Bath, England, seen from a viewpoint in Parade Gardens about a month ago. This bridge is apparently the only one in the world with shops continuously lining both sides of the street — no gaps for public spaces, unlike similar bridges elsewhere.
