The sun dial bridge in Redding California. I honestly love this bridge and stop here every time to drive north to Canada or Portland.

While floating the Sacramento River with my son, I couldn’t resist photographing the Sundial Bridge—but not in the usual way.

This is a deep infrared shot at 830nm, far beyond visible light. No color here—just bold contrast, black skies, white foliage, and the dramatic elegance of Calatrava’s design cutting across the frame.

The Sundial Bridge is more than beautiful—it’s functional and environmentally sensitive. Designed by Santiago Calatrava and completed in 2004, it spans the river without disturbing the salmon below. Its 217-ft pylon doubles as a sundial and supports the entire structure via cable-stay, all while looking like a piece of modern sculpture.
