Bridge Detail: US Hwy 59
 
     
   
     
 
Rise or fall red orb?
Glint, sun-touched shapes intersect
a moment in time

At first look, this image is a study in color and shape. Then, some identification is wanted. So here it is – This is a detail of an architectural element adorning the series of bridges that span over US Hwy 59 in Houston . Most Houstonians have seen these giant red balls but not in the context presented here. It is this presentation of the ordinary in an unordinary way that can be both surprising and satisfying. No digital enhancements have been made to this image.
