Tyne Bridge

Tyne Bridge

The Tyne Bridge has joined Newcastle with Gateshead since 1928 and is an icon of the North East of England. The main span of the bridge is a steel arch, which takes the form of a lattice framework. It weighs over 7000 tonnes and spans nearly 400 metres. It is almost always painted green.

Another excellent photo. :) What’s the key to taking suhc good pictures with a digital camera? I don’t mean the composition, I mean the contrast, colour balance, and saturation. Do you twiddle much with the settings, or have you just got an awesome camera?

No real secret Mal. I actually know very little about photography. I just run out when it’s sunny with my Fuji A202 and take loads of snaps. The only twiddling I do to the camera is turning the flash on or off - the camera sorts the rest out. The only fault I have with the camera is that images don’t print out great, but then it’s only 2 megapixel.

God, I wish my camera (a Canon Powershot S110) were that good out of the box. The previews I get on the LCD screen look great, but when you download the pics, they’re really dull and lifeless. Just need to keep trying, I guess. And on sunny days. ;)

At first I thought it was Sydney Harbour Bridge. But that one is probably still bigger...
Great pictures and even better site.
