When looking at a bridge, one cannot help but admire the way it carries its burden in spite of being endlessly battered by nature’s forces. Somehow by looking at a magnificent bridge we can be inspired to continue facing life’s never-ending challenges in spite of being terribly beaten. A bridge thus, symbolizes strength and determination amidst seemingly impossible odds. It also stands as a monument of man’s genius and unflinching search for answers to problems. It’s a marvel in itself by its sheer size and complex architecture. No wonder, bridges, especially the bigger ones, are always fascinating to look at.
Here in this article, we are showcasing 40 stunning examples of bridge pictures that you can look at as inspirations. These are photography of some of the world’s finest bridges the world over.

Amazing bridge photographs. I really loved the red bridge a lot!!
What a great collection. I have always been drawn to bridges. I wish the Falkirk Wheel Bridge would have been included. It is a really unique bridge; check it out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falkirk_Wheel. I really liked the photo of the Fenway area bridge. It looks so surreal, which is a really interesting quality for a photo.
