Amazon Canopy Panorama

Back in 2008 I took a trip to Peru by myself and spent half a dozen days in the Amazon jungle.

Not on the Amazon itself, mind you; I was technically on the Madre de Dios River, but it is all Amazon-ish as far as I could tell.

The place I stayed at had a high up cano

The Carey Adventures

Bhavna and I have not visited the swinging bridge over the Stony Brook since November 2017.

The swinging bridge in Institute Woods, Princeton, spans the Stony Brook, allowing visitors walking the trails around Institute Woods to cross over to access the wooded areas that are sandwiched between Stony Brook and the Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park Trail. It is constructed using sturdy materials to ensure safety during crossings. The bridge adds convenience for visitors exploring the wooded trails and natural surroundings of Institute Woods. Its design blends with the environment, providing a seamless transition across the water.

Overall, the swinging bridge serves as a functional and practical element within Institute Woods, enhancing accessibility and facilitating movement for those enjoying the outdoor experiences the area has to offer, but it is a destination in itself. We were not the only ones seeking the Swinging Bridge.

Despite what others have stated on social media, the Swinging Bridge very easy to find. Take the Trolley Track Trail from either the western trail head near Clarke House Museum or eastern trail head near Crossroads Nursery School. When you get to Founders' Walk walk south until you arrive at the Swinging Bridge. The swinging bridge is clearly marked on Google Maps and Apple Maps, so you can just use those apps to help you walk the trails.

The swinging motion of the bridge is minimal, offering stability while crossing but some walkers (like the person above) are not confident.

Swinging Bridge over Stony Brook - Island in the Net - Photography, Technology and Everything in between.

Created by photographer Frank Jansen, the Tuesday Photo Challenge is a weekly theme-based challenge for photographers of all kinds to share both new and old photography.

Island in the Net
(2/2) The kid is still alive as far as I can tell (family has kept info out of the media, but the charges haven’t been upgraded to murder). I wanted to go back and take a pic of the bridge now, but the 77yo shooter is out on bond, and, presumably, still in his shack across the highway. And, presumably, he lived there the whole time I was doing the same thing those kids were doing. This is a shot of my wife on the bridge. #photography #blackandwhite #northcarolina #appalachia #swingingbridge
(1/2) Close to home: Bridge over the Toe River, near the NC/TN line. This place is incredibly special to me; I visited countless times as a teen, dragging my friends along on photo adventures. I’m 42 now. In February a group of teens visited this bridge and got into an argument with people that live across the highway. A neighbor heard the argument and came out and shot one of the teens in the chest. Fifteen years old. #photography #blackandwhite #swingingbridge
