Walter Taylor Bridge

I picked up some new daylight black and white film development kit and chemicals last Saturday, so decided to head out Sunday and get some 4×5 sheets shot to try some taco development in the new tank.
I didn’t venture far – just down the road to the Walter Taylor Bridge that links Indooroopilly and Chelmer.
This was taken at the Chelmer end, below the bridge where some maintenance is underway on the small residence in the pylon.
This is from the Northern end, featuring the cable supporting the pylons. The cable was originally support cable linking the two halves of the Sydney Harbour bridge together when it was being built. After the Sydney Harbour Bridge was completed in 1932, the cable was brought up for use in the Walter Taylor bridge, which was completed in 1936.
