This bridge has caught my eye many times before, but this is the first time I have photographed it. The bridge crosses the Wingra Creek, from Wingra Rd to the UW Arboretum. Luckily, on my only chance to photograph this during the challenge week, we had very low winds, so the ripples in the water were at a minimum (although I would have liked an even more still setting).

I really enjoy the framing of this with the trees, the perspective, and the colors (shot during mid-day, but Topaz adjust helped bring out the colors well).
