Bridge Wednesday - Leaning Toward the Weekend

Bike Rider, Ravenel Bridge, Mount Pleasant, SC  © Doug Hickok  All Rights Reserved


You may ask, "Why Bridge Wednesday?" Well, Wednesday marks the midpoint of the work week for many people. And a bridge works nicely as a metaphor for linking one point to another... in this case connecting the early part of the week with the later. Combine these two with a biker tilting around a turn on a bridge, and presto!, I have us collectively leaning toward the weekend.
Ha! Obscure perhaps, but surely symbolic.

  13. this would have been a great shot without the bike rider due to the inherent geometry. the presence of the bike, however, makes it a superb shot as it introduces a dynamic element into the static frame! extra cool!

  14. Definitely a convoluted bit of thinking Doug. But entirely understandable - and forgiveable for such a cool pic.

  15. Excellent analogy! I love all the great lines here and, of course, the lean.
