Cable bridge, a photo from Beer Sheva, Southern

Photographer's Note

This is another picture from my short trip to the Negev desert.
Israel is a very small country by means of area, and this desert occupies half of this small area. This picture is from the northern part of the Negev.
The cable bridge goes above the Bsor, which is a river, which is dry almost all the year, but in the wintertime it conveys an amazing amount of water, and a very impressive flow.

Très belle composition Yitzhak. Il ne faut pas avoir peur du vertige sur cette passerelle. L'angle choisi est parfait pour mettre en valeur la photographie.
Impressionnant !
Very well done.
Very beautiful Yitzhak composition. One should not be afraid of the giddiness on this footbridge. Selected angle is perfect to emphasize photography. Impressing! Very well done.

Nice image Yitzhak.It does look very dry apart from what's arounfd the river.

RGatward (20086) 2004-05-11 5:43

Godd perspective, and very interesting note. The bridge is really necessary for the scale, the strange desert plants would make the river seem much more like a ditch without it.

A good photograph of very interesting scenery. Good composition and good natural colors. Very much in the spirit of TE!

Wow! Lovely perspective and depth of view with the diagonal of the bridge, Yitzhak! The yellow colours of the desert work finely as contrasting layer between sky and grenery. Very well done!

great job Yitzhak,
Great depth, good colours and a good composition, well done

You've chosen the best angle. The curve of the bridge makes it look very dynamic. I would crop out the top part to allow more focus on the bridge. Good picture.

beautiful composition for a great depth, a photograph for Indiana Jones. Vertiginous

Zanni (6108) 2004-05-11 12:49

With the green grass and the little river Negev doesn't seem a terrible desert, but it has fascination. NIce photo and good composition

Burnham (2428) 2004-05-11 13:29

I have nothing to pick on. Beautifull picture. The colour tones work really well, and I agree, GREAT angle and compo!

Didi (61589) 2004-05-11 14:06

C'est comme dans les films d'aventures où le héros "Avigur Jones" qui traverse le pont qui menace de se rompre et les crocodiles affamés attendent en bas.
Le sujet est très bien commenté et la composition est parfaite.

It is as in films of adventures where the hero "Avigur Jones" who crosses the bridge which threatens to break and the famished crocodiles wait in bottom. The subject is very well commented on and the composition is perfect.

Waw wath perspective Yitzhak, the small bridge this is wonderful, excellent job.

nwoehnl (122) 2004-05-11 14:22

Very good angle to capture this bridge - I like how it starts in the bottom right area and leads almost to the opposite corner. And along the way there are some distinctive desert features to be seen in the landscape. Colors and contrast look really good, even though it seems to lose just a tiny bit of sharpness towards the back. Beautiful natural view, very well done Yitzhak.

Hanssie (11022) 2004-05-11 14:27

Oh, what a feeling of depth, great !

cmartos (242) 2004-05-11 14:27

A really awesome composition. Almost no sky and a long curved diagonal to the corner and...only two colours excepted the sky. Really a strong and great picture with a very good sharp/blur effect. Excellent!

A well framed shot, Yitzhak. Not only do we see most of the bridge, but you have also added depth to the shot. I like the way the shadow takes us down. Well seen.

ChrisJ (160104) 2004-05-12 3:32

Great composition & use of linear perspective & opposing diagonals. I may try a workshop.

Great angle!! Difficult to tell from the photo how high this bridge is and how wide the river. Funny how that brigde seems to lead to nowhere. makes you think twice before you croos. ;-)

CVTJan (1244) 2004-05-14 6:24

Hi Yitzhak, I also wanted to make a comment about that movie hero, than I saw the discussion title that is already there ;-) Almost a 3D experience, very nice. Yours, Jan

cool_s15 (4050) 2004-05-14 7:44

wow this is very long cable bridge! I like your angle which cover most of the bridge. The other side also got a very interesting color. Very nice shot!

zto (268) 2004-06-14 8:09

Yitzhak,

I haven't seen this photo before. It is gorgeous! Your POV adn the warm colours. Fantastic.

gilad33 (14429) 2004-08-10 4:28

Great prespetive of the bridge.
I feel like going there now, look what you are doing to me....

:)

rabani (9645) 2004-08-10 4:30

I can relate to this cable bridge Yitzhak. Trekking in this region, almost all the rivers has this type of bridges, swaying and pitching when walk on, across the river. But its different in your photo. So contrasting. On the other side, it looks so dry, arid while under the bridge, green and life supporting.
