LOL! I'm much better anyway.

Just showing those as examples of the type of angle I'm looking for to shoot the bridge.

So, I've still not had any luck in finding a good non-private spot to shoot the bridge. Still looking for a spot. Then we can do a little J-Ville get together and we can put faces to names and take some photos of the bridge. We'll laugh. We'll cry. But, overall, it'll be a good time.

Thanks. I appreciate the welcome back.

How do I get there...other than by boat? I don't have access to a boat. I'm a good swimmer but not sure I could make that swim. Besides, I'd have camera gear, etc.

I think you would like the angle of the bridge from Blount Island. You do need someone to take you out though. Check the pic on the site out.

I would like the angle.

Anyone got a boat who wants to get a group out there for photographs?

Pull up to the security gate and tell them what you want to do ... maybe there's a special pass, or they can provide an escort onto the island ... worth a shot

Right but don't I still need a boat to get out there? I have no problem asking people for favors for this sort of thing. People, as a whole, tend to be more than nice in these situations...when they can be.
