Alhambra (Muir) Viaduct, Martinez, CA, 2010.All the pixels, and be careful of approaching trains, at flickr.com/photos/mattblaze/46#photography

A tall steel railroad trestle over a highway, converging at the left of the frame. There's graffiti on the side of the trestle.

Captured with a 45mm shifting and tilt/swing lens and a DSLR camera. A bit of swing kept the side of the trestle in sharp focus, and a bit of shift maintained the geometry with the framing.The long, tall, Alhambra Viaduct on the BNSF railroad is also known as the "John Muir Trestle". People far bolder than I had tagged it with graffiti.This is mostly a study in lines and convergence.Infrastructure is heroic.
