This is the old hwy 601 bridge near Lancaster S.C.! Built in 1926! It is said that when it was still in use a young mother and her baby were in a car crash on the bridge and were killed and that now on every full moon you can hear a baby crying here at mid-night??

Oh, how sad is that, and you know, for me it's still Valentine's Day for about another hour. I'll save this one for Halloween.

Nice perspective shot, though.

"Where there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see." ~Dorothea Lange

That's a wonderfully evocative tale! Stephen King would give his eye teeth for soomething as good as that for a novel opening. And the picture is made by those leaves and that date. Smashing.

Saw this image in the voting booth, and I really like the feel and the perspective of this shot. I stopped by to suggest one thing tho, if you adjust the levels just a tad it really brings out the leaves and the moss. But not that I see the story behind it, maybe you want to leave the levels alone, it does give it more of a ghostly feeling Very nice photo, sad story!

We have a similar tale here in Ohio. The mother was supposed to have killed her baby, and you can hear the baby cry when you are on "Cry Baby Lane." I like your shot. Very nice diagonal leading through the picture.
