Old Railway bridge, a photo from Mazandaran, East

Photographer's Note

Veresk Bridge: Veresk bridge was constructed during the empire of Reza Shah Pahlavi, on the Veresk valley in the vicinity of Savad Kooh in Mazandaran province. The railroad began in 1936 by Iran痴 Reza Shah when the first train arrived from the Caspian Banadar Turkman port to the city of Tehran. During the world war II, it was known as the Pol-e-Piroozi, or the bridge of victory. The bridge is at an elevation of 110 m. and its arch measures 66 m. in length. This bridge is one of the master pieces of engineering to do with the railway track in northern Iran. The railroad is 497 km long, has 31 stations and more than 55 tunnels the most famous of which is the Gadouk Tunnel with a length of 2887 meters.

Hi Mohammad, nice shot of this historic bridge, I don't think I would like to go across it though as beneath looks a long way down. Nice POV and details, well done and TFS.
Dean.

You managed to give so much dynamics into this otherwise pretty static composition. It even has a graphical element in it and I love that diagonal light streak crossing from the high left into the two bridges. Excellent capture, Mohammad.
The only problem of the post are the 115kb's? Why didn't you use the allowed 200? This compromises a lot the digital quality of your shot. To much pixelation going on here.
I will give 2 points for the exquisite composition and light conditions.
Kind Regards, Peter
