Day 034 - Urban shapes and textures

Portsmouth, NH view map

I set out this morning for another bridge shot, though this time of Memorial Bridge, the Southernmost bridge between Maine and New Hampshire (also the oldest). I found an interesting vantage point at a marina condo kind of place that was vacant as it is winter. I couldn't get the right angle and left unsatisfied. Memorial bridge spills you out right smack dab in the center of Portsmouth, I made it a few blocks before stopping near the "Warner House" which has been kicking around since 1716 (according to the sign in front of it). I like the brick shapes and texture, along with the windows, the arch above the door, and the fence rails.

Best thing about going a little wider, is that I didn't need my monopod, the Image Stabilization kicks in and gives me a little help. That was very helpful on the icy sidewalks.
