GRANVILLE STREET BRIDGE, VANCOUVER

Posted by Anne (White Rock, Canada) on 17 August 2007 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

I'm digressing from my series on the trip from Vancouver to Whistler, but I was shocked late last evening when I walked into the living room. The late local TV news was just showing a hole in this bridge's barrier rail where large truck/semi-trailer had gone through and fallen down. This shot doesn't show the whole length of the bridge, and there was no news regarding the driver etc. So must have happened quite late.

This is the same bridge that I posted going across the top of it when I started the Vancouver to Whistler trip series. Very sad and horrifying to think of a drop like that! This shot at sea level was taken earlier. :-(

Well! I am back and missed being away so long due to ill health. It was a bit of a struggle to find energy to stay on my computer and post. My daughter Lesley and her husband Robin, gave me this wonderful gift of a cruise to Alaska and Lesley and I had a whale of a time! I could just live on that ship - absolutely wanted for nothing! Hope to hear from you all! Don't know how much I can get around posting comments - so will probably have to keep them brief - but will try to get around as much as I can! Thanks to all my friends for their good wishes!

Please go ahead and give me constructive criticism where needed! I am a bit out of practice at both taking and editing decent photographs - so help me if you can!
