Something for the Weekend - Part 218 - A round of Bridge!

Hi,

Thanks to Jane for creating our last, very successful,  'cracked bell' challenge and to all who took part and posted their images.

 

This week, we are off to the Scottish highlands and, in particular to Carrbridge. The packhorse bridge, built in 1717, is said to be the oldest stone bridge in Scotland. It was all but destroyed by a great flood, in 1829. So, 195 years on, I thought our Photoshop team could give it some attention. What can you do to bring it back to use?

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

 

 

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Dave

You've thrown everything but the kitchen sink at that one Dean 🙂 Actually, I don't think we've done a kitchen sink yet, there's a future idea. I do like the inclusion of the old boat!

Did you not spot the kitchen sink @davescm ?

We've half inched the bell and with its clapper in the stream we have a lovely ringing tone created by the flow.

 

Best regards, Euan.

Of course, only the best Scottish engineering here. 
I mean, it's been standing since 1717!

 

Best regards, Euan.
