The famous Green Bridge located up in Sullivan County, NY just down the road from our house.  Michele grew up just around the corner and this bridge was 1 of those paces that all the kids would hang out at and play.  It was built in 1879 and the sign says Groton Bridge & MFG CO. Builders, Groton NY.  Being a Bridge lover myself I had to inspect this engineering marvel of it’s day more closely with the Canon 5D mark II and a few lenses of course

My goal here was to be a Photojournalist.  I wanted to capture the bridge’s beauty and history the best I could without any crazy editing or anything. All these images are un-edited except for the 1st image because I printed it large and framed it for Michele Merry Christmas!!  All the other images just have a white balance correction in Adobe Lightroom, and some minor exposure adjustments.
I also tried to find some history on the Bridge, but came up dry.  Please email me if you have any info!

For Lenses I used the Canon EF 24-107mm f/4L IS, and the Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS.

Michele and I went down to the Palisades mall yesterday and on the way out of that “Shopping Paradise”, we swung by the palisades overlook. It offers a killer view, and the conditions were perfect For this image I used the 5D mark II, and the Canon 70-200 f/2.8 L. I had the camera set to f/9 and took two separate frames so I would have a High res Panoramic to work with
