Last Saturday morning I drove over to a Builders Merchants in Reading and on the way back I stopped off at a Station to take some photos of it which I had been meaning to for a while. The reason was because this Bridge
Was being replaced because the line is being electrified and the bridge is too low for the overhead cables
While taking the photos I noticed the sky overhead and had to get a photo

Beautiful dramatic sky over the new modern bridge :)
Indeed, one tempting sky it is. Beautiful shots! my favourite are the last two.
Great contributions to the theme day. Enjoy your weekend!
Yes I thought that when I saw the sky
I was building the photos up to the last one I felt the shy looked great
Thank you, and hope you enjoy yours as well
Lovely silvery buttermilk clouds!
Great series.
Nicley put Indrani I never though of them that way
Wonderful lines in the bridge and the station. Your sky photo is amazing !
Best regards, Synnöve
Wonderful where photography takes us. You had in mind to photograph the bridge and by chance you were presented with that super sky. Both came out really well.
Beautiful sky photo!
Great sky!
Gorgeous sky. I like the new bridge too!
You captured my favorite kind of sky!
Thanks Synnöve I liked the sky as well
Your so right it was an opportunity that just happened but I was very pleased it did
Thanks very much
Thank you Mike
It's always great to see an old, tired bridge being replaced by something sparkly and new! Nice shots, especially your last one of the sky.
Yes, it may not have the same character but I feel they have made a good job, next will be to get a photo from it.
Thank you Judy, glad you like it
I'm not sure I'm happy to see bridges removed but in this case it is needed and they did a good job with the new one

Lovley record as always and that last shot is an absolute winner! YAM xx
Thanks Yamini though I'd have prefered if the sky had been a little more dramatic
Progress, I guess. Love your sky shot!
Great photos! There's no trains or no tracks in my nearby society - I have to travel by car for nearly 3 hours to get to the closest train station! So, in some way trains are exotic to me - and it's a shame, because I love to travel by train! Sitting in the wagon, reading and reading and reading...
Wow! That sky is gorgeous!
Thank you Pat
3 hours, that would get me down to Wales in the car. Our station is a 5 minuet walk from my house. I love looking out the window as I go anywhere on the train.
Thank you Dana it is rather
I like the look of the new bridge better anyway. :-) Pretty sky, love the little puffer clouds and hints of gold in it! Glad the bridges guided your eye and camera skyward!
Isn't that interesting!
It does look nice but the old one had deteriorated so it would have been necessary to repair it Taking the photo of the new bridge gave the opportunity of a sky shot
Glad you like it Jennifer
