Canal Bridge

Lift bridge and reflection, Hamilton/Burlington

Taking this photo last Monday (a beautiful February day), I was in Hamilton looking across the canal at Burlington. I was struck by the beauty of the orange reflection. The colour is paint, not rust.

    That was a monster. Very nice combination of the green and orange against the blue sky.

    I like it was painted to look rust-ish. Very pretty color, actually!

    Great reflection. Sort of the color of our Golden Gate. Doesn't look quite a cold as some recent photos.

    This is such a beautiful shot.
    I have always found draw bridges kind of scary for some reason but I love to watch the boats going through.

    Well, I guess when it does rust, they won't have to paint right away! Beautiful reflection.
