This view of the famous Tyne Bridge in Newcastle upon Tyne, was taken to emphasise the massive structure and steel work. This view was taken looking south over the bridge towards Gateshead and the roof of the Sage building can be seen in the lower left of the image

The bridge over the River Wye at Chepstow, (Cas-gwent), which links Gloucestershire in England with Monmouthshire (Sir Fynwy) in Wales. The sun is setting at the end of a late September day and the lamps on the bridge are gradually lighting up. Chepstow was a vital stronghold from Norman times when William I saw its importance as a frontier town. In the background can be seen the towers of the castle, originally built by William FitzOsbern in 1087. Nikon D7000 Nikkor 18-200

The bridge drew me, a jolt of pure Americana, of Art Deco and Jazz Age. The trains trundle overhead, cutting through buildings, reminding me of a metropolis fantasy cityscape. The metal is riveted, solid, nostalgic too, with fascinating hues of orange, purple, brown, a metallic autumn. I am in Chicago and a day of freedom and exploring awaits, a day of indulgence. I look upwards, beyond the tracks of the Loop, at the skyscrapers and the parcel of sky. The work is filled with energy, with detail and colour. A perfect addition to any collection of American art, a great gift, a wonderful souvenir of the Windy City.

Above me rumble trains, loud, otherworldly. In this netherworld, covered by its canopy of ochre metal, I look up, at a patch of sky, at the lines of tower blocks. I love being in America, far away, invisible and unknown. I want to explore all day long, to savour the smells and sights and sounds, familiar through film. I love the texture of the trains, corrugated, they cut through the air, through buildings. This work is rich in colour, it is vibrant and energetic. A wonderful souvenir of Chicago.
