I had Monday off and went out to photograph some covered bridges. As I approached the first one over the Contoocook River, the road passed over a dam. From the top of the dam, I briefly spotted the covered bridge below. I parked the car and grabbed my camera and zoom lens. I hiked to the middle of the dam to take the picture and found the view of the bridge not quite what I had hoped. The back side of the dam had this gorgeous view. The zoom lens would not do, so I made this image with my iPhone.
beautiful, woke to a dull overcast sky , actually rained over night.. this photo is perfect to balance the start of the day! waves good morning.
Waves back. Thank you. It’s overcast and rainy here also. We are in a hot, humid, rainy stretch. We will have sun tomorrow, though.
Beautiful! I did not know It!
Thank you so much. It was new to me also.
The iphone you used delivered a really good picture. Amazing how gizmos will eradicate the camera one day. Just like how Kodak died with film and cameras when digital pics came about. Glad you shared. Thanks.
Thank you Garfield. It will be interesting to see if cameras on phones ever replace digital cameras.
If it happens then I wonder what will happen to Carl Zeiss, Canon and the likes of other brands of great camera companies? Maybe the phone gets even more sophisticated and they reinvent selves to be the sole supplier of lenses to the phone. Only time will tell I guess. I am so used to seeing the avid photographer with their slew of camera equipment or as Americans say, complete with bells and whistles.
Good idiom! It will be interesting. There are always enthusiasts who like the old ways.
Yes, I do like the old way as it is charming. I see how the photographer complete with the vest filled with equipment, lying in wait for that perfect shot!
I like to travel compatively light. Since I bought my camera (which came with two lenses), I’ve only invested in one more lens which cover 95% of my work.
Smart choice of lenses!
A picture-perfect view!
Thanks Liz. It’s pretty from the top.
I really need to start flagging some of your photo locations for day trips.
The dam is pretty. There is a covered bridge just below it.
Even better!
View from the Dam,looks an absolute glam..
Hey you made a rhyme. Thank you, sir.

Thank you so much.
It looks like a painting. 👀🍃
I felt the same. Thank you, Gail.
This is peaceful.
You inspire me to explore and blog more, coz nature has plenty of things to observe and appreciate. 💛💛
Thank you, Desire. I hope that when go out and explore a bit more, you will share your experiences with all of us.
Of course that’s the source of virtual travelling sitting on our sofas at home 😂😂
Wow. I would not have known this was with your phone if you hadn’t mentioned it. Gorgeous day and beautiful view.
Thank you, Lois.
Looks incredible!!!
Thank you so much!
What a gorgeous shot with your iphone! Amazing view Chris! I hope you’re doing well today!
Thank you, Sandra. We are in a hot and humid stretch of weather and just trying to lay low during the warmer part of the day.
Holy mackerel, top that!
Thank you. I’m going out tomorrow to see it I can. 😊
Have fun!
Thanks. I still have lots more bridges to photograph.
I will wait patiently for those.
Stay tuned. One is in the queue for tomorrow. 😉
Fabulous 💯
Oh, thank you so much. Have a great day.
You also.
this is beautiful, like all your pics
Thank you so much. 😊
now I really want to to grab my brush to sketch…
Go for it!
breath-taking, love how the bridge line stands out…
Thank you so much. It’s a great view up there.
Wonderful shot! It’s funny but sometimes I also rely on my phone’s camera instead of my real one when the result looks better. 😄
They are decent cameras.
