It was built in 1926 to replace an 1833 Thomas Telford one. A very interesting structure this was the first time I've stopped to take a closer look. This used to be part of the A9 Great North Road from Edinburgh to Inverness but now just a side road.

Nice shot. How old is that structure? That concrete looks like its poured, but yet it looks hundreds of years old. Did they use concrete back then?

Love the aged colors, even the thumb draws you in. Plenty of diagonals, the triangle under the bridge and the perspective just keeps drawing you in further. Great job! - Tom

I agree with Humberto, well done Jock. To save you the trouble of putting names on the other two just delete them as they're surplus to requirements:-) This shot ses it all mate:-)

Hi Carr,

All three images are really nice, but this is the one I like the most. It has so many diagonals and suggested triangles! Also, it gives a sense of depth. I don't think I would change anything, not even crop on the right. Well done! But, check the size, you've got 183kb there; you need to be under 150kb. Also, remember to put your name to all three.
