Excellent collection of PA covered bridges, Michael, especially this one. I've shot this one myself, though not with the beautiful snow cover. I need to get back to eastern PA more. L/F.
Michael Mazaika replied:
Thanks, Guy, for your kind thoughts and for spending some time with my covered bridge portfolio. More to come. Sachs is a beautiful piece of Americana and I visit it often when I'm at the Gettysburg battlefield. - Mike

Hi Mike, I love this photo! The snow adds a wonderful touch. Yes, the same architectural style as some of the New Hampshire bridges. Your photography style is wonderful and I like the presentations throughout your galleries.
Michael Mazaika replied:
Thank you, Caroline, for your kind encouragement. I hope to make my way, some day, to visit the many covered bridges in New Hampshire and Vermont. Thanks, also, for visiting my portfolio. God bless you real good. - Mike

Thank you, Debra and Dave, for featuring this scene in "Barns Big and Small". While I still hold out until Memorial Day for one last snow, I think know it's time to put away the snow shovels and start chasing around the approaching colors of spring. Be well. - Mike
