Hennepin Avenue Bridge at Night

A shot of the Father Louis Hennepin Bridge wraps up a week of images along the Mississippi River. The current incarnation was built in 1990. I love the pretty lights dotting the bridge.

Next to it is the Grain Belt Beer sign, an icon that has stood on Nicollet Island since around 1940. I wish they would light it again. The letters used to light up in sequence, which mesmerized me as a little kid.

Since I was still working without a tripod, I had to lean up against a light pole for this pic. I also couldn't get the whole bridge in the pic with my 75mm equivalent lens, so I had to settle for one of its two towers.
