Thank god we aren't supposed to read the pesky challenge descriptions. They always get in the way and confuse the righteous indignation.

I want to know how many people are going to be harassed by the police or arrested for taking pictures of bridges.

And I wanna know why they made this BASIC editing, depriving us all of the joy of using the flood plugin to create bridges where none exist? jejejeâ�¢

Mood made a good point. Would police ask questions if taking pictures of bridges? I recently did some, and noticed I was being stared at constantly by park police, but they never said nothing.

I've heard several reports about people being questioned by police for taking pictures of bridges.

On a serious note, if you're truly worried about this, be prepared. Print out the challenge page! Take your tripod with you. (How many terrorists have you read about busted while taking pictures with a camera on a tripod?) Have some answers ready! "I'm an amateur photographer given a challenge to take a truly great picture of a bridge. I'm moved by this bridge because of the contrasts between the old brick of the bridge and the modern buildings behind it!" I really don't think cops are runnin' around saying to their partner, 'hey lets raz some photographers takin' pitchers of bridges this shift'...

Good sarcasm toocool..I meant confused because of the options I have here in NY. here is a sample. I will cancel this bridge since I shot it before.

Don't force me to smack you down with my closed minded, non challenge readin' voting methodology...
