The arch of the City Bridge “De Oversteek” was moved to its final place over the river Waal. The main span of the arch bridge is 285m long; the total length of the structure, the arched bridge including the approach ramps, is 1,2 km. The city bridge comemorates the daring crossing of the 82nd airborne division during the Second World War. The bridge is being build at the site where the paratroopers crossed the Waal River in small boats in daylight. During the crossing on September 20th 1944, 48 American soldiers died. More than 10.000 people followed the spectacular mega-operation on April 20, 2013.

I’ve been living in and traveling to the USA for decades… And, the more I travel in the US the more I realize just how much of it there is to see. I still haven't been to Yellowstone or Yosemite or some of the smaller states. I have only seen a tiny slice of Texas, and have a huge amount of the Midwest left to explore. And then there are the places I always want to go back to — places like the Bay Area, Chicago and New England. Even though I have SO MUCH more to see, here are some of the highlights from my US travel.
"Photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place. It has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with how you see them."
Elliott E 
About MeI just like to take pictures, I just push the button. I never worked in the darkroom, I never studied photography or journalism; I’m just a passionate photographer. "Success is the ability to go from failure to failure, without a loss of enthusiasm”
Sir Winston Churchill Therefore, I Am A Believer Of "All Critiques Are Valid". Thank You!
