Bridge to Nowhere?

I spent the last couple of days working at the North Coast where there was a big temperature difference compared to the rest of the state.  It was about 35 degrees (F) cooler at the coast.  Consequently, in various areas it was somewhat foggy.  The marine air was fighting to come onshore which made for some interesting compositions.  This is Yaquina Bay Bridge which spans the mouth of Newport Bay, one of the larger cities and a popular tourist spot.  It looks like a bridge to nowhere!

  5. Looks like a bridge to another place or time, and if you cross over you may never come back! Been watchin' too much sci-fi again. :)

    Lovely image and so different from many we see of this scene. The fog always makes it a mystery, a challenge, and often a treat getting a familiar scene with a fresh and unique look.
