Crossing the Williamsburg Bridge Into Valhalla



I sometimes like listening to the Finale from Das Rheingold when I walk across the bridge. Wagner goes great with girders and rivets.







Of course, the gods are entering Valhalla because they can't afford Manhattan. Not enough Rhine gold for a suitably palatial burg.

Very interesting analogy, Doug! Your picture does that bridge justice, and I agree it does give an almost Norse (mythological) image over the river.
