I have some thoughts about the Tappan Zee bridge. You see, I was married more or less in its shadow, just out of frame to the left at Lyndhurst. Honestly, I much prefer the original to the current version, which I find overblown. Not that I am a Luddite, as I really do like the improvements that have been made to the little park in Tarrytown from where this photograph was made. Now that the old bridge has been demolished, this image has become much more important to me, like the portrait of a departed relative.
