 Taken with my 350D converted for IR work only. This is a picture of The Old Chain Of Rocks Bridge in St Louis Missouri. It was the original Route 66 bridge across the the Mississippi. It closed a long time ago to automobile traffic and was saved from demolition by some preservation groups and turned into a pedestrain bridge open to foot and bike traffic. I love this bridge and frequent it often, especially now since the Bald Eagles hang out by it. Overlayed a texture I made and then used a border I downloaded off the webb. If anyone is interested in the border there is about 5 free at this site.

Very nice border - thanks for that link. I really like the whole package here - the infrared, the overlay, and the border. Nice old pic feel.

Thanks for adding the general interest about the bridge and the link :) Great image on its own but even better with the overlay

The border looks great with the texture. And I never would've guessed it was an IR shot.

Stark and lonely. This image has a post apocoliptic feeling to it. I feel like I am the last person on earth searching for someone else. Thanks for the border link. I'm checking it out.

I really like the grayscale, with just a hint of color.
