Description
View northwesterly of the Wooddale Covered Bridge from West Rolling Mill Road over the Red Clay Creek in early autumn. A steam excursion train of the Wilmington and Western Railroad, running between its Greenbank Station and Hockessin, rumbles by the bridge in the background. Originally built around 1850, the Wooddale Covered Bridge was destroyed by flooding rains in 2003 by Tropical Storm Henri, being rebuilt a few years later by the Delaware Department of Transportation. The original bridge had been added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. Image = DE Covered Bridges New Castle Wooddale-5 101919 134A-134E E-D M C1 FT B-10 PSP.jpg.

very beautiful processing. L/F
Michael Mazaika replied:
Thank you Constance for your encouragement. This image was as challenging to shoot (because I didn't really expect an excursion train to go by) as it was to process. I hope you enjoy this ongoing series. - Mike
