Digging (somewhat) deep into the archives for this 2008 image of the 12th Street Bridge in Calgary’s Inglewood neighbourhood … or I should say the old bridge, as this structure was removed from its pilings last month. The bridge, which connected Inglewood with the Calgary Zoo, was damaged in the 2013 flood and a replacement is in the process of being built.

There isn’t a big-name architect attached to Calgary’s George C. King Bridge over the Bow River at St. Patrick’s Island but it’s beautiful all the same.

I might be going out on a limb here … but wide-angle lenses and Calgary’s Peace Bridge are a match made in heaven.

This striking structure is part of Tillikum Crossing, the newest bridge across the Willamette River in Portland, Oregon. Opened to traffic in fall 2015, it’s reserved for use by MAX light rail Orange Line trains, Portland Streetcars, cyclists and pedestrians. It is the first bridge of this sort in the United States, according to TriMet.

Just another evening on the Peace Bridge in Calgary. It’s definitely a popular place to be: It was around 10 p.m. that day and I had to wait several minutes for the bridge to clear sufficiently for a decent photo.

Sunset really is the golden hour.
This is the north edge of downtown Calgary, the Peace Bridge and the Bow River in the foreground and a descending sun reflected in the skyscrapers, all as seen a few days ago.

Another view of San Francisco’s signature Golden Gate Bridge, seen from the Coit Tower on my visit there this past autumn.

While San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge gets a lot of attention, the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge is no less visually impressive. The section you see above opened in 2013.
