An image that brings a soft mood with it as well as the wish you could be there with the sun on your skin and the misty colors of the spring morning filling your mind.
Below are some images available as prints in a wide spectrum of sizes and frame styles. You may purchase either one and make your choice of frame by clicking on the image. The second image is a derivative of the first. I like to think the ordinary world is always transformed like this if we could only see it.
Who knows it may be an enchanted garden.

The Moods of the Astoria-Megler Bridge
The Moods of the Astoria Megler Bridge.
The bridge as art. You may purchase a print by clicking on the image. You will be transferred to 'Art From Another Dimension' my store at Zazzle. I am very happy with the quality of the merchandise produced by Zazzle and have one of the bridge with the sailboat on my own wall. It is reproduced as accurately as I had hoped it would be and this is the case with other prints I have bought as well.
The bridge as light catcher:
It's up and it's short. The sun goes through the goal posts. The bridge and horizon looing west into the infinity of the Pacific.
This is one of my favorites taken from my room at the Crest Motel in April of 2009. I was awestruck by the spectral scene with the beautiful bridge higlighted and the ships in the foreground.
I was taken by the beauty of this structure the first time I saw it appear from within the mist hanging like a scrim over the river. Four years later I moved to the area and I am still fascinated by this beautiful bridge.
One dynamic feature of this area for photographers and artists is the ever changing weather and high humidity and sporadic influx of clouds of different sorts. The two features provide spectacular variations of light.
The bridge in the morning: Even in the grey damp mist people take to the Riverwalk for recreation. Someone is out for a morning walk.
I took this from the perspective of a toddler looking through the fence who has spotted the morning sun gleaming on the bridge.
Another perspective of the bridge in the morning mist. Standing beneath it I photographed the 'Bridge to Nowhere' disappearing into the fog.
At Sunset:
Another view of the bridge at sunset showcasing its span stretching into the distance.
This view of the bridge is from Coxcomb Hill overlooking the bridge, the Columbia river and Youngs Bay.
A daylight view of the bridge looking down from Alameda st.
Light and shadow along the Riverwalk. Striking patterns form naturally. Here for a moment ... gone the next.
