A Bridge Not Too Far

On Saturday night under a waxing gibbous moon, I captured these shots of an old railway bridge at Pyalong. I was hoping to utilise the moonlight to highlight the bridge but when I arrived, there were so many trees surrounding it that the bridge was in shadow. Only where there were a few gaps in the trees to allow the moonlight through did it shine on the bridge. I had no decent torch powerful enough to paint the large structure so these are the best I could do on the night. I used a modded canon 550d and a Samyang 14mm f2.8 which only starts to behave itself at f5.6 but works best at f8, which these were shot at. The moon washed out the Milky Way and didn't shine on the bridge but hey, I had a nice time anyway!
