<p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/grundyfoot/55043591172/" title="Victorian ironwork, 175 years strong"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55043591172_038b1d06e9_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Victorian ironwork, 175 years strong" /></a></p>

<p>Look closely at these intricate iron details - built by the Hawks family from 5,050 tons of iron, this pioneering structure was the world's first bridge to combine rail and road traffic. The pedestrian walkways you see here have carried millions of footsteps since the road deck opened in 1850, when pedestrians paid a halfpenny toll and could only cross from 5 am until 6 pm (24-hour access came in June 1871).<br />
<br />
<b>Engineering Under Pressure</b><br />
Between 2005-2008, the bridge underwent essential restoration when severe cracks were found in some of its iron girders. Every rivet, every beam, every plate of this ironwork was examined and restored. The footpaths were closed in March 2006 due to vandalism and the increasing scale of works, but reopened in 2008 after the £43 million restoration.<br />
<br />
<b>Built to Last</b><br />
James Nasmyth's novel steam pile driver was used for the first time in bridge building, delivering 60 to 70 blows a minute compared to the four-minute cycle time of hand-operated drivers. The ironwork you're looking at represents the cutting edge of 1840s engineering - and it's still doing its job beautifully.<br />
<br />
The pedestrian walkways on either side of the lower level provide great views of the river and the other bridges - all framed by Robert Stephenson's magnificent iron lattice work.<br />

<p>Tito Presi, in Spain in the summer of 2012, standing in front of pure color: red and yellow, bold and uncompromising, like a painted wall made of primary geometry.<br />
His posture is relaxed, almost playful, but at the same time solid — as if he belongs to that background, as if the color itself was framing him.<br />
This image is all about contrast and balance: the human figure against the intensity of the scene, the casual summer clothes against the strong graphic composition, the sunlight turning a simple moment into something iconic.<br />
A light, spontaneous portrait — where the primary colors become the true atmosphere of the photograph.</p>
