WALKED FAR?

No 5 : 99 likes Here, on the afternoon of 17/5/18, standing on Manhattan Bridge, New York, USA, I wondered just how far those people had walked as I took the photograph. On this particular day, I did a circular walk over Brooklyn Bridge, then Manhattan Bridge, then through Chinatown and back to my hotel. Took a prize winning shot of Brooklyn Bridge which was published by the Big Picture Competition in the Daily Telegraph!

OLD MACHINE

No = 6 : 98 likes Captured this scene of an old machine, in the former silver mining town of Calico, California, USA on the morning of 30/9/17. This was a stop on my Route 66 trip. Calico boomed during the 1880 – 1890’s then collapsed. Some enterprising person bought it and now it is thriving again as a tourist attraction. Can’t get lost here either as the name of the town is painted on a mountain top in big letters!
