Bridge Comparison (Budapest)

OK, this shot is a little soft focus, too, but it's hard to take such a long shot at night without the use of a tripod! (When Julie and I went to Europe for our honeymoon, the tripod was one thing that didn't fit into the luggage.)

I think it is interesting to compare the ornamentation and construction of the older bridges in Europe that are still in use and maintained against the newer bridges in the US that are already being taken down because they are "unsafe." Makes one wonder how the bridges in Europe have withstood the test of a couple of hundred years of time, and ours in the US can't live to 100!
