Oregon Bridges
Posted By: xs400, 09-09-2007, 10:26 PM

I just returned from a 4 day motorcycle ride up the Oregon coast. Took quite a few pictures, but haven't had time to go through them all yet. Here are a few of the first shots I've looked at. They certainly have some nice looking bridges along the coast.

These are some of the many bridges I crossed on Highway 101 as I rode up the coast.

Nice project, great shots. Think I'll "borrow" your idea and shoot some of the old bridges we have in Maine. Thanks for sharing.

Regards,

Ken

Those are really nice shots Frank - the detail is crystal clear and the water is a very nice blue. I have heard that is a beautiful drive and I hope to do it one day.

Yes these are really good shots and a good idea for a project. Looks like it would be a great place to tour. Looking forward to more of this series.

Very nice composition on all three. Cool looking bridges (especially the second one) and some very nice scenery too! Great job on these photos!

Glad you enjoyed your trip - and it looks like the weather cooperated as well! I have to admit, I haven't seen these bridges in over 20 years - not so far away, but, . . . .

I've got lots of Portland bridge shots - they're easy to get to by bike!

Yes, but you have some of women near Portland area bridges! I expect to see some of the bridges themselves sometime in the next few months.
