There is so much you can do with a bridge.

This year Queen Beatrix of the Netherland will celebrate her jubilee for 25year royalty.
She will visit all 12 provinces. And I think she will pass the Calatrava bridges on her tour.

So this is my contribution to this large event.

I propose to dress the bridge with some Dutch flags.
And to paint some guys orange, for Orange is the colour of the Dutch Royal House.

Maybe the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra can play the National Anthem when the Queen visits this place.

Of course you can order special editions for other occasions.

This is a example I made for the anniversary of Magnus.

I'm waiting for picture showing the Queen in front of your work ! Nice compo (you could have called it "When Netherlands meet France" too !)
;=)

I did not know what it was but definitely eye-catching. You have done quite a lot for the bridge already. Keep it up!

She already opened the bridge and this is a great idea, to make our flags in the Calatrava. What a nice colours we have, isn't it ? Nice creative shot, Rob !

bonjour Rob. C'est incroyable ce que l'on peut faire avec un peu d'idées et une photo.
Travail bien réalisé.

I have been away from TL for just a week ut so much has happened. This is just one of your fantastic new contributions. I very much like this experimental style of combining the real and the imagined. And achieving an image with a statement. And it is very welcome to the theme group.

Great shot Rob, like the use of the lines here in the composition ...the flag colors are an addition in this concept !!

Super lines in this one.

Nicely done.

Rob, this is a wonderful picture... lines, patterns and colours. A great composition.
Thanks for sharing your creativity.
