Babbs Bridge

It's been a grey, dull overcast day so it was another excuse to do nothing - which I'm actually almost
getting used to after a long time. Covered bridges always seem to have a romanticism about them so we
made a point of getting out and seeing one - hopefully we'll see some more. With the light as bad as
it was I decided to 'toy' with this shot.
Some factoids,
"Babbs Bridge was built in 1864. The original bridge was burned by vandals in 1973. An exact replica
was constructed and opened to traffic in 1976. It is located two and a half miles north of South
Windham, then one half mile west, over the Presumpscot River between the towns of Gorham and Windham."

Great image,Dave.Reminds me of one of my favourite films, "Bridges of Madison County" which is certainly a romantic movie!

A great way to present a shot of a covered bridge. One of the best I've seen. Voted.

I love covered bridges. I like the bright light showing through the tunnel.
