I didn't know about that one in Delhi. Where is it? I found this one because I usually stay at the Octagon Motor lodge (Not many choices around that area) and drove past this one everyday on my way to the College. I generally do not have much free time when I go there but, I'd like to check out the bridge in Delhi on my next trip.

OK, next time in the area...

When you come from Hamden on Route 10 go right through the village of Delhi and continue on Route 10 out of Delhi. It's about 2-3 miles outside of the village (still in the town) on the left.

Let me know next time you might be in the area and if you have an afternoon free (and I have it free, too) and maybe we could do some shooting in the area (if I know the other types of things you like to shoot).

There's also a nice covered bridge in Downsville, which is about 7-8 miles from the Octagon Farms.

Thanks, I will probably be back down that way sometime over the Summer. As for what I like to photograph.....anything is fair game....but, I do tend to lean toward nature and animals.

Visited yesterday, so I guess I'll add my shots to the mix.

Taken from inside the bridge - looking out.

Nope - taken with the old one.
