Lots of construction repair work being performed on the Third Avenue Bridge. The original photograph, before creation of this stylized version, appeared to me to resemble a Middle Ages fair on the side of the bridge. I decided to work with it to see what else I could turn this photograph into. I used a technique that increases the vibrance of colors along vertical and horizontal lines in the image. An additional surprise effect is how the reflection of the bridge is picked up in bright blue and gold in the water. My wife likes the photograph so much that we had it printed on aluminum with a matte finish at 30 x 20. We display it in our kitchen over the stove.
