Artist Commentary

"Winter Sunrise Rail Bridge from Pfluger Bridge"


painted less than two years after the pfluger pedestrian bridge opened to foot and bicycle traffic (though the digital was taken the first winter after the bridge opened) it offers a grand chance to view the colorado river, named lady bird lake at this point

this particular view is to the east, one sunny winter morning in austin, with the typically hardy rowers braving the cold water and air, the union-pacific rail bridge splitting the view like a giant bird poised to receive the rising sun

the view to the west is toward the much older south lamar bridge that had become dangerous for pedestrians to use

a nice aerial view of all three bridges is provided on the city of austin site

on warmer days, and on especially hot days, the breezes flowing along the water's path almost always offer a moderating touch

and on holidays, this wide pedestrian friendly bridge is a gathering spot to view the fireworks from the middle of lady bird lake
