Trunk Road Triangulated
Posted by Richard Irwin (Belper, United Kingdom) on 24 January 2008 in Cityscape & Urban.
This major road carries traffic between Nottingham and Lincoln. It passes over the River Trent here in Newark. I find it a formidable structure, but I kind of quite like it somehow, it appears out of place, but boldly stated.

A masive structure hanging in space! Indeed out of place! Nice work!

Cool shot, Richard. The structure is so imposing from this angle.

I like the symmetry, the converging lines, and the colors. Well done!

I never would have guessed this to be a road - wonderful perspective! It does look out of place, but it makes for a great composition!

Great composition, colors and shadows. A very nice image of what is probably an ugly structure....

WOW, this is an Absolutely Stupendous image, Richard. All I can say is WOW again, and I really salute you at your awesome work reflected in so many of your pieces that I've missed these past weeks. I’m sorry the part of my brain that usually says more is not cooperating very well these days. I have tried to explain more in my (over-lengthy!) post today. Truly, best of wishes to you and yours always, Richard.

Like the comp and framing, Richard. It really does seem to be hanging in mid-air... appearing out of nowhere as it were.

I like this quite a bit because of the way you've positioned the road in relation to the rest of the scene. Really makes a powerful statement.

An amazing structure, it's hard to believe that it is actually a road, it looks quite artistic. a great persective.

you have created a lovely image. I like your composition. The bridge is also a divider between the left part and right part of the image. Superb work!
