I had the perfect opportunity to photograph the sunset behind the Portage Canal Lift Bridge in Houghton (pronounced HOE-tun) Michigan. Once again the clouds cooperated, and even though there were a few raindrops around, it was a pretty nice scene.

Super!
Don’t know if you noticed, but the bridge actually has two decks. In summer, traffic moves across the lower deck and the bridge only has to be raised for very large boats. In the winter, vehicle traffic uses the upper deck and the lower deck is used for snowmobile traffic.
I did see the tracks under the bridge, although I didn’t recognize the purpose at the time!
Wow!! on this image! Yes, things seemed to cooperate.
Thank you. I knew when I saw the bridge and how it was oriented that I needed to give it a shot.
