Designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel - I was reading about this, and how it came about - And I read that Brunel won a competition with his design of the bridge back in the 1800's. Unfortunatly due to the Bristol Riots the work was halted for a while and then resumed again, but Brunel didn't live to see the featured product. Alot of his life work went onto the design and planning and it just struck me as incredibly sad that after all that - this great legacy and Grade 1 listed building was never properly seen by the man who dreamt it.

Please ignore Camera Data - still have yet to set the time on my Dad's SLR body

This is quite beautiful. I just LOVE how it has a slight foggy look at the top, it really compliments the picture. And the sepia tone is just so calming...

I've always loved sepia tones in pictures, providing it's the right type of shot and there's just enough lighting to define it properly (which you have done here ), so all-in-all excellent shot! Only wish I could've been there wi... oh wait

I love the sephia tones in this, it reminds me of how it would have looked had Brunel been taking a picture of it. This is a breathtaking shot.
