Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Our New England State of Maine once had about 120 covered wooden bridges crossing small streams or rivers. Sadly today, there are only less than a dozen left standing. I found this one in Oxford County near South Andover on Covered Bridge Road. It was built in 1867 at a cost of only $ 743.47 and is a single span of the Paddleford Truss style. It also has the distinction of being Maine's shortest covered bridge as it crosses the Ellis River at a length of only 76 feet. Named after a family home located on the east bank of the river, they called it the ... Lovejoy Covered Bridge.
I created this black and white image from my original color photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures and other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green square magnifier as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
