Last week I found this place with this view to the bridge. This bridge was designed by Teophile Seyrig, a Belgium engineer disciple of Gustave Eiffel ( the same one that build the Eiffel tower in Paris) in 1886, so was inspired in the design used by Eiffel and in his methods of work. Originaly the two plates are for cars, now the upper plate is for the metropolitan and the other for cars. We have also in O'porto one bridge builded and designed by Gustave Eiffel one of this days I post one photo of that bridge.

Great shot, what I think makes the shot even better is your description. This description gives a little bit of history and interesting info on the subject.
Thanks for sharing! :)

"To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."
~ Henri Cartier-Bresson

Look around and catch it ; the Art is there !
That is some awesome view you have posted here.
A wonderfull bridge indeed, like the one in Oporto.
You can clearly see who enspired the builder/designer here.
