Revisiting the Soleri Bridge

 

Last year I did a post about the Paolo Soleri Bridge in Scottsdale. Today I have a few extra shots I've taken when I'm near the bridge.


It's such a unique structure that I can rarely pass it without taking one or two photos.

It actually is a bridge that crosses the canal on the walking path at the Scottsdale Waterfront shopping area.  It is also on the list of Scottsdale's public art installments so it serves two purposes.














Those two tall and shiny pillars make good photographic subjects.


















The play of light on that metallic surface can create  different effects.


I can even peek between the two pillars and catch sight of a pedestrian crossing the bridge.  

It's a fun place to walk around and since it's outside, and part of a walking path, it's a safe place to walk during these crazy times.

It's such a photogenic bridge Sharon I can see why it's impossible not to take more shots. Bridges are one of those structures than can look so different from many angles. Those silver pillars are fabulous from this angle 💜
