B&W Photo Contest - Bridges - Birzos Bridge

in #bwphotocontest6 years ago

Birzos Bridge is the oldest bridge of the Klaipeda city whose location hasn’t changed until today. Supposedly, this bridge was built in the beginning of the 16th century, when the Old Town was first surrounded by the artificial bed of the Dane river in the north. (The current section of the river goes from the city’s defensive wall to the Karolis Bridge)
For a long time the bridge was wooden, but in 1879 a metal drawbridge, designed by the local architect Meyer, was opened.

This time in black and white and (pretty unusual) the infrared version

Enjoy the scenery :)

Wow, its a very good information, and is it really not changed a bit till today, i am very eager to know

The contrast on this shot is super cool! Are those leaves on the tree? Totally looks like blossoms due to the infrared I’m assuming?

Yes, due IR

It has stood the test of time. Nicely rendered black and white image!

I always wanted to convert one of my cameras to IR just for the purpose of shooting handheld. I have am IR filter but it's a drag to mount the tripod, focus, slap the filter.

Yeah, that's the point. So I just found pretty cheap second hand body for that purpose. Its good enough

Already converted or did you converted it afterwards?

After. Just investigate before who could do it locally and how much would cost. But well, that was some 5 years ago :)

Wow so nice how I wish I can visit that place soon . But my sister said I can visit that place in my dreams. 😭. Anywe Tnx @axeman for sharing your post love it I'm one of your followers now.
