When I was in college, a friend got a summer job on the paint crew for the Mystic River Bridge. This was before the days of OSHA required harnesses though a safety net was slung below the decks. One day, a fellow painter on the crew made a slight mis-step and fell from his perch on a beam. He hit the net, but promptly bounced out and fell several hundred feet into Boston Harbor. Amazingly, he survived with only a few broken ribs. My friend has been a little scared of heights ever since.

What a structure. I like how you've given us the ability to view the details. Wonderful colors too.

You'd never get me up there without a harness.
