Related: About this forumI had an itchy shutter finger today
Weather was so perfect, and I haven't been taking many pictures lately (having issues with my camera - the result of my own abuse - like dropping it! Plus there's some dust specks inside the lens so if I zoom in close I get these infuriating spots)
I went down to the river to see how the new bridge is doing. But on the way there I saw this bicycle and had to get a shot of it...
The bridge- Tilikum (Chinook for People) Crossing- still a year away from completion. When it opens, no cars or trucks will be allowed. Light rail, the trolley, buses, bicycles, pedestrians and emergency vehicles only.
Walked down the river a bit, to OMSI (the science museum).That's the USS Blueback, moored there, in front of the new bridge.
Submariner's Memorial at OMSI (that's the screw from the Blueback)
Reflection in OMSI windows
Primary colors!
Walking back the sun was behind one of the bridge towers. I'm lucky I didn't get any sunspots!
That's all! Just static subjects for now. Tomorrow I'll go looking for October stuff. Maybe I'll see a ghost!

I hope you'll have a look at my topic for the October contest, and enter a new photo!

And I have looked at your topic, and have a favorite already. I only wish we could enter more than one!

The camera? Don't worry about that right now. Go out, snap some shots, and have fun.

(60,062 posts)you seem to have handled them well. Good placement in the last image. The reflected sun lit up the bottom of the bridge. Nice.
