Only 5 people made entries this time, but it was still a hard choice! I've been going back & forth all morning because I just couldn't decide the order of the ones I narrowed down to the top 3. I'm pretty sure I loved every single bridge picture, so it was tough just narrowing it down to top three. Y'all are so great and I envy your spectacular bridge photos.

GsPEP: Thanks for starting off the entries. I like all your photos, but my favorite of your is the Cologne, Germany bridge. I love that it is a night shot with the castle let up in the background.

GrandmaR - you always find interesting and unique scenes to photograph. My favorite of yours in the Tiny Bridge in Bermuda. I will say I've never seen a bridge that small before. So unique!

npdemers - I love your bridge photos, too. I really love the Paris bridge with Notre Dame in the background and the city scape, but my favorite of yours is the Vancouver, Burrard Bridge. I love the mood in that photo, the reflections in the water, and the skyline.

Cavalier - I really like that you found unique and interesting bridges to enter. That hands free bridge and Foresthill Bridge both gave me shivers. My favorite of yours in the Sundial bridge at night. It is very unique. I like the pattern in the foreground and the color of the span. Impressive even at night.

bfluegie - What's not to love here? I had a hard time choosing my favorite of yours. The Mackinac Bridge is pretty cool with the storm clouds. I love that gloomy mood and it's a good-looking bridge to boot. But, I'm a sucker for botanical gardens and arboretum's , so my favorite of yours is the Footbridge at the Arboretum. I love the colorful trees and the tranquil setting.

Now, , I have to pick a winner.

Honorable Mentions:
@grandmaR -- Tiny Bridge in Bermuda
@Cavalier -- Sundial Bridge
@bfluegie -- Mackinac Bridge

3rd Place: @bfluegie -- Footbridge at Arboretum

2nd Place: @GSPeP -- Cologne, Germany

1st Place: @npdemers -- Vancouver, Burrard Bridge

Congratulations! Thanks for making my choices hard. I'm looking forward to the next mini, especially since I won't have to judge it!!

    Thank you for giving us a great subject and judging this mini - and thank you for the HM. I don't know the purpose of that tiny bridge - I think I took the photo from a car as we drove by

    I love the Colgne brige photo too since I have been there.
