Pont Neuf morning # 1 - a photo on Flickriver

            ** I do not usually repeat locations but this post and the subsequent one will both be of the Pont Neuf taken from the same vantage point on the Pont des Arts. The difference will be the time of day and the change in light. This first one was taken relatively early in the morning . It was relatively cool at 8.30am  only 30 C as I recall . It was also Mary's birthday 

Its ironic given its name “ New Bridge “ that the Pont Neuf is the oldest standing bridge across the river Seine in Paris . Older bridges have long been demolished .
The bridge is composed of two separate spans, one of five arches joining the left bank to the Île de la Cité, another of seven joining the island to the right bank. Old engraved maps of Paris show that the newly built bridge just grazed the downstream tip of the Île de la Cité; since then, the natural sandbar building of a mid-river island, aided by stone-faced embankments called quais, has extended the island. Today the tip of the island is the location of the Square du Vert-Galant, a small public park named in honour of Henry IV, nicknamed the "Green Gallant".
