Red Bridge

This was the view at one particular spot on Belle Isle that I took back in November. Digging for pictures, I came across these pictures below in my archive. I really am glad to see them again since we had so many gray days already.

Snow has melted some, and the sun came out a bit today, but the wind was just too cold to linger outside. We had to be swift going in and out!

The Whole View


We often drove by this part of Belle Isle many times in the past, but I didn't pay attention to how beautiful the red bridge was until that day in autumn. The sun was just right, and the changes of colors in the trees were just beautiful that I had to stop.

Zooming In


The reflection of the red bridge was gorgeous. I spent quite a long time on this bank of water. I watched the ducks floating, and looked at the reflection of the yellow weeping willow tree in the water. Everything seemed in harmony.

Zooming In a Bit More


This was as far as my camera allowed to zoom in. I wanted to have a closer look at the ducks and to find their reflections, but they were in a darker part of the water.
