Description
The 25 de Abril Bridge (Ponte 25 de Abril "25th of April Bridge") is a suspension bridge connecting the city of Lisbon, capital of Portugal, to the municipality of Almada on the left (south) bank of the Tejo river. It was inaugurated on August 6, 1966 and a train platform was added in 1999. Because it is a suspension bridge and has similar coloring, it is often compared to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, USA. In fact, it was built by the same company (American Bridge Company) that constructed the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and not the Golden Gate, also explaining its similarity in design.

How funny....I'm so glad you mentioned that it's often compared to the Golden Gate Bridge, because every time I see this bridge, I DO think it's the G.G.B. for a minute!! Glad to know I'm not crazy, and that there's actually a reason for that, lol!! :))) This is really beautifully done! Love your post-production!! :)))fv
