I have taken pictures of this bridge previously and wanted to show it from two different Black and White perspectives.  The first picture is right out of the camera...untouched.

The next picture was taken as an Infrared Photo and was post-processed.  This is my favorite IR photo  I had an camera just for IR, which I recently sold, but with the use of IR filters, IR photos can be taken with standard cameras.

The last photo was taken in color, but processed as a Black and White photo with more post-processing added.

We took a day-trip to Athens, GA yesterday and to Watson State Park.  We had mixed thoughts regarding Athens.

I wanted to eat at The Last Resort restaurant, but as it turned out, it was closed for the Fourth of July.  we did eat at the The Diner, which is quite nostalgic.

There were a some Grafitti Art and here are two that were very impressive.

 

 

The Bus Stops caught my eye.  Here is one example, but others were artistic as well.

The next pictures are of Watson Mill Covered Bridge, which you can read about below the pictures.

 

Watson Mill Bridge contains the longest covered bridge in the state, spanning 229 feet across the South Fork River. Built in 1885 by Washington (W.W.) King, son of freed slave and famous covered-bridge builder Horace King, the bridge is supported by a town lattice truss system held firmly together with wooden pins.  At one time, Georgia had more than 200 covered bridges; today, less than 20 remain.
