Whites Bridge

 This beautiful bridge no longer exists. After serving it's purpose crossing the Flat river since 1870 near Smyrna Michigan an arsonist burnt it down in July 2013. These Photos were taken a few years earlier.
It took until 2021 to raise the money, and rebuild the bridge - which I haven't seen.  A wiki page contains more of the story here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whites_Bridge

Infrared

 Infrared Photography is something I had not explored until recently. There are companies that convert digital cameras to shoot in various pre-determined wavelengths of infrared. Usually they range from about 500 - 850 nanometers for digital photography. The lower numbers have altered colors to visible light, and the higher (800-850) tend to be black and white only. I purchased an old (classic 5D) camera that was converted to IR at 665nm, or "enhanced" color.

Infrared does interesting things to a blue sky, or green foliage.

and when converted to black and white makes the sky go black

With the "enhanced" conversion you can adjust the color quite dramatically
