Rainbow Bridge at Twilight

Driving home after work, on Tuesday, January 24th, as I crossed over the Swinomish Channel on the famous Rainbow Bridge I was stunned to see the water perfectly still. I knew the bridge would be reflecting nicely in the water. A quick u-turn, down the hill and over to my favorite spot to shoot this shot from. Within a few minutes what was left of the evening's twilight had turned to darkness, but I managed to get the shot. Ultimately, I want to do this but at high tide so more of the bridge's reflection will be in the water.

Lovely image and end-of-day light. This stillness can't be very common...

This is spectacular. It is wonderful that you took the time to make the u-turn!

This is a great shot Jim, I think you are being a little too self-critical.
I don't think you could have done it any better.
Your experience and familiarity with this location has resulted in this
picture perfect shot.

This shot is fabulous, Jim.
The bridge and reflections, and the last rays of the sun
on the white buildings make this an outstanding image.
You could sell copies of this image.
Bravo !!
