Vanishing Point

[Jack Dawe]

I'm quite proud of this shot for sentimental reasons. Back in the 1960s when I was a kid, this footbridge was only half the width and had only one handrail. It held no terrors for me, even though one did contemplate slipping off into the soft mud below, but now, in my old age, I was very glad to find that it had been immeasurably improved.

Good idea to add another handrail to the bridge. If you slipped and fell into that water/mud, you might not get out again, not without help. Great vanishing point.

Doesn't seem like a very sturdy bridge. Two handrails are definitely better.

Well, it certainly felt sturdy enough and there would surely be a legal liability if it wasn't.

Good point. Looks can be deceiving.

Mallorca. I was there ages ago, when I was young, partying mostly... Great vanishing point.

This landscape is very nice in colour too. Nice soft tones.
