Rainbow Bridge

Rainbow Bridge

An uncharacteristically normal shot for me, not a bit of peeling paint or broken window in sight!

Taken on a recent wander along the river, this is Newcastle / Gateshead’s Millennium Bridge, known locally to a lot as the blinking eye bridge. The entire structure rotates through 40 degrees when pushed by the three hydraulic rams at each edge, lifting the coloured archway you see here and the walkway slung from it high into the air to allow ships to pass underneath.
