I\u2019m aware a reoccurring subject in my photography is what is now named The Prince of Wales bridge otherwise and more commonly known as, the new<\/em> Severn bridge or the Second Severn Crossing. In February 2019 I made one of my favourite square photographs<\/a> but a few months ago I thought I\u2019d have another go but from the opposite side (the North side).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The photograph was pre-visualised as colour and deliberately styled to match my earlier 2019 photograph and side-by-side they make a nice pair. But whilst the colour version is good I really like this black and white version as there are no colour distractions leaving the eye to absorb the bridge and its wonderful, bold shapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are the colour versions. The first from 2019 and the second from 2020. Clicking <\/em>an image will open a larger version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
