Went for a nice scouting drive in the sleet/snow/rain yesterday, and found this for future excursions. Not the best weather/shooting conditions, but while we were there thought might as well take a couple pics.
This is the largest bridge in the world built as its sole purpose to allow snowmobiles to pass over this ravine. It is 512 ft. in length and 90 ft above the water surface. There is another a little smaller approx. 8 km south of this one across a similar ravine. The local snowmobile club built this in 2005.

Love the second shot: the way the clouds fit into the landscape frame. Very nice.

Very cool -that is a pretty serious snowmobile club. Number 1 for me. Did you use HDR software for these?

Thanks all for looking/commenting. Def not a great day, but will go back for more shots. Have another area of windswept shoreline with some ancient, bent from the wind trees to shoot here also, but ran out of daylight fast, and this was just a scouting mission anyways.

As for PP, no HDR used, just a few adjustments on sliders in Lightroom is all. LOVIN this 14-24 lens and the new D750.
