Discussion: Bridges of the World July 2026 (page 1 of 18)

This is where you can chat about bridges... let’s get the conversation started! 😊

Congrats, Isabelle, on your award-winning photo (and the others)!

The links you shared in the "landscapes" thread, which are supposed to lead to the "bridges," do work (though we’re not all equally lucky with bugs). You’re too kind to say it, but let’s remind newcomers that the photo thread is strictly for posting photos and that questions and comments should be posted here.

Before diving into my little hard drive, a question: are the small bridges* still eligible? And what about "no bridge" (because bridges are just too beautiful)—is that allowed? (Lesotho)



* got the ref? 😇

Thanks, Jean Luc! 😊

Yeah, the mysteries of tech... 😅

Yes, thanks for the reminder!

Before diving into my little hard drive, a question: are small bridges* still relevant, and are they allowed?

Not being a soccer fan, it took me a sec to get it 😂—nope, not allowed! 😅

And what about "no bridge" (because a bridge is just too beautiful)—is that possible? (Lesotho)



* got the ref?

Nope, I need a bridge! 😊

Should I go or shouldn't I? (Kyrgyzstan)

Kalimera, in the local language. 🙂

Congrats on the win and, as always, your stunning photo. 🙂 This time, I’ll have to pass. The photos of bridges—those little stone bridges spanning the emerald torrents of Epirus, where fauns and nymphs rest—were on the lost external hard drive.

Just dropping by to mention the San Virgilio Bridge in Lombardy:

And a Venetian bridge that needs no introduction:

@Montagnard74 Thanks Bruno for kicking things off! 👍

To go or not to go? (Kyrgyzstan)



Well, honestly, no contest! I’m not going 😅 Did you take this today for the theme? 😄

Just passing through, so here’s the San Virgilio Bridge in Lombardy:

Thanks, Catherine! 😊 Honestly, these two photos fit the theme perfectly—I really love the second one, which, in my opinion, would totally hold its own in the contest. The first one is so original! 😄

Hi Catherine, I also think we should submit these two photos—the Rialto really shines in them. I compared them with mine and... no contest! !

Should I go or not? (Kyrgyzstan)



I'm going... on all fours! 😄

@Montagnard74Thanks Bruno for kicking things off! 👍

I said I’d be more active in July ;)

So, in the "should I go or shouldn’t I" series, I had this from Laos, on Don Khon Island: PS: We went!

Here’s one from the "should I go or shouldn’t I" series—I had this from Laos, on Don Khon Island: PS: We went!



Wow! You’re quite the adventurer—I wouldn’t have gone 😮‍💨

Thanks, you’ve given me an idea ;) I don’t have much on bridges, but I’ll make an effort to contribute...

Hey, does this one ring a bell? 😛

The photo is from a few days ago.

No need to go there—there’s a much newer bridge right next to it! !😄

The cows would love to go there, but the bridge is blocked for them! (Kyrgyzstan)

Seeing the theme, I thought, "Oh! I’ve got some of those!" ... and then I realized I actually have way more photos *taken from* bridges than *of* bridges themselves 😎.

Anyway, great job on those awesome bridge photos you’ve already posted 🙂

Speaking of Laotian bridges, the bamboo toll bridge that used to be rebuilt every year after the rainy season (I think it was you who told me it no longer existed and had been replaced by a permanent bridge)

And the bridge itself:

Even if the photo isn’t great, I can’t help myself...
