One of the most interesting bridges for me is ＂De Brug＂ van Vroenhoven. It＇s not just a bridge over the Albert Canal, but also a monument, memorial, museum/experience centre, restaurant and event venue all in one. With a total length of 195 metres, it connects the towns of Riemst/Vroenhoven and Wolder+Daalhof/Maastricht. This is where the Second World War began for Belgium. In May 1940, the Germans marched over the previous bridge at the same spot.Address: Maastrichtersteenweg 212, 3770 Riemst

Herbert, looks like an ancient design you may have found wanders the chambers and temples at Karnak or Luxor, very cool. Usually such extreme lens distortion bothers me but not through your eye(s). Might have to due to my soft spot for reflections. As usual yet another great piece, well done!
Suggestion to other viewers not only view at full screen wait for the over layer info to disappear.
I would like to thank you very much for your very kind and constructive comment, Paul.
What you call lens distortion is not actually distortion. This part of the bridge is built that way. You're looking from above into this oval below. It had rained shortly before the photo was taken, so a film of water had formed on the dark surface, reflecting the clouds. I send you my best wishes.
Herbert, thanks for the clarification on several levels. Peace
