Newport Wave, Market & Castle Bridge

For a change I thought I'd do some long exposure night exposures with car trails. The pouring rain didn't help and they were spoiled by rain spots......so a change of plan was required.

By the time I drove to Newport Castle Bridge, the rain had momentarily stopped so I managed to get some more pleasant images.

This one shows The Newport Steel Wave, Provision Market and Bridge. The Wave provides a nice reflection.

Here's some information on it....

Steel Wave sculpture at Newport - "Standing on the riverbank at a place once known as Town Reach where commercial and passenger wharves were thriving from the early 1800s, is the sculpture 'Steel Wave' by Peter Fink. It reflects Newport's history of steel manufacturing and the foundation of the town on the banks of the rivers Usk. Erected in 1990, the sculpture was made using 50 tons of sheet steel and stands 14 metres high x 35 metres long."
