Often I photograph from road bridges, yet some bridges make for interesting photos. I hadn’t made a photo from the ground of the Stafford Hollow Road bridge in Monson since the 1980s.
Last month a late running northward freight gave me the opportunity to photograph this unusual old bridge from the northside.
I exposed this view with my FujiFilm XT1 using a Lee 0.9 graduated neutral density filter to hold detail in the sky.
Great picture – it could almost be Ireland in the past – we don’t have too many old bridges like that still in use today.
Hello Mike, most recently I had an exhibition in Springfield, Massachusetts back in January. At the this I don’t have any exhibitions or lectures scheduled in the area. My next talk will be in Cork City, Ireland in October. All the best Brian
Brian,
I live in Monson, off Silver St. I missed your presentation at Giclee of NE many moons ago and at Tower Square (Valley Photo); do you have any local exhibits planned in the year

I enjoy mood photos like this one in Monson ,MA Having various
subjects in a photo does increase the interest.
