Clifton Evenings

I am very lucky to live only a matter of minutes away from the Clifton Suspension Bridge. A lot of the time I am too busy to be able to see the sunset but on this occasion I was able to capture a nice glow of the clouds, despite missing the main event. The bridge is somewhere that despite being iconic to Bristol, is still an area which is peaceful in the evenings with only a few people wandering around. I will be leaving Bristol in June and hope to capture the bridge at sunset again before then.

150th Celebrations.

On the 7^th of December the Clifton Suspension Bridge celebrated 150 years since its opening. To mark the event, a firework show was put on. The fireworks went on for approximately 12 minutes and in that time we were treated many sights, sounds and colours, with an amazing waterfall firework off the bridge being one of the highlights. It was a chilly evening and as the crowd gathered we took a moments silence to remember the recent tragedy that had occurred so close by before the show went ahead for the evening. It seemed gathered on the hillside by the bridge that most of Bristol had turned up to see the spectacle.
