Imre, this is a fascinating piece of history. Your photo is very well composed and the dramtic lighting just points right back to the subject. I've visited your gallery as well and find your photos to be very appealing. Thanks for sharing your talent! - Patty

This is a dynamite capture Imre and I've walked the bridge myself. The sky is amazing here and you've outdone yourself with this setting. Are the lions on this bridge or are they on another one..I can't remember. Thanks for sharing this beautiful sight today. Anita

Wow, couldn't have shot with better timing! Celestial, like you'd hear angels singing at the first sight of the bridge, ha ha! *in high pitch voices* - " Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh..."
Wonderful photography :)
