Winter Ladder on Bridge Pier Over Choppy Estuary

by Landon Gardner

Rust-colored steel rungs ascend the weathered gray concrete face of a massive bridge pier, disappearing into the shadow of the span above. The estuary water below churns with whitecaps, reflecting the harsh late-afternoon sun in scattered glints. Fine mist and sea spray hang suspended in the air, clinging to the cold concrete surface and blurring the edge where the structure meets the sky. Ripples crash against the base of the pier, sending small droplets upward that catch the light before vanishing into the mist. The texture of the wet concrete contrasts sharply with the chaotic movement of the gray-green waves. A vertical steel rung holds a thin film of moisture against the horizontal sweep of the water.
