It’s quite a while since I last published any of my pictures from our „RailTrailsRoadTrip“ in October last year. So I really need to continue. Here’s a picture of Eads Bridge. We passed underneath it on our 2-hour cruise of the waterfron to St. Louis.
This picture has been edited, I must admit, both with ACDSee Ultimate 9 [for a light equalizer] and with easyHDR [for enhancement of details], but I think this brings out the fine metal structure very well, even if it does look a tad artificial.

I really appreciate this detailed and astounding picture of Eads Bridge. Thank you very much, dear Pit and have a very good week.:) Liebe Grüsse Martina

Hallo Martina,
als ich Orginial und dann diese Bearbeitung sah, war ich unheim\l;ich ueberrascht, welche Vielfalt von Details da noch herausgekommen ist, in einem Bereich, den man als „abgesoffen“ bezeichnen wuerde.
Auch Dir eine schoene Woche und liebe Gruesse,
Pit

Good Sunday morning, Pit! The structure is well captured, it shows the magnificent engineering work.

And a good Sunday morning to you, too, Amy, and thanks for the comment. I agree: it’s certainly an interesting structure. I just looked it up, it could be called a filigree lattice-truss. „Filigree“ – to my mind – expresses it very well.

Looks great. I don’t think it looks artificial. Not sure I would want to fall in that water though.

Thanks, John, for the comment. 🙂 As to „artificial“: if I remember correctly, the colours weren’t that vivid. But I like that the enhancing brought out so much detail. I really didn’t know what all was in the original picture. And until I started working my pictures over with HDR, I didn’t know how much detail could be retrieved. Actually, this picture is not true HDR, as that would need three or more picture with different exposures. The programme call this, from just one picture, „LDR“.

I’ll take your word for it. I do like the detail however you got there.

I like the detail, too. I’m very happy I was able to bring that out.
Have a great Sunday,
Pit
P.S.: How’s the weather down at the coast. Here, we had a thunderstorm, but a kind of“beneficial“ one: no damage, but good rain [1.6″].

Sunday possibility. Usually goes past. I did wash my wife’s car today just to make sure it rains.
