Road Trip 2018 - Day Nineteen, Photo Madness In Chattanooga

In all our travels one of the things I love best are the experiences that come out of nowhere. We had all kinds of plans for today involving famous Lookout Mountain but the weather was projected to miserable. Oddly enough there are not a whole lot of indoor type of activities (at least that Captain Spouse and I would want to do) in town. So while we are not necessarily 'art museum' people, it seemed to offer the best opportunity given the weather.

As it turned out, the bad weather held off. The Hunter Museum of American Art is right by one of the major outdoor attractions, the Walnut Street Bridge. The museum building itself is a work of art and combined with the bridge, we ended up getting into major photographic mode.

Then we went into the Hunter Museum itself and I opted to use a lens I have never tried before. It is a 17mm fixed lens. It goes to a very low 1.8 f stop which gives it great definition but has real limitations as far as distance is concerned. So it turned into a day of experimentation and exploration.

 The Walker Street Bridge

Turns out all the history of the city, and its growth was put on the bridge

It is one of the longest pedestrian bridges in the world

And you can see so much of the city and its redone riverfront area

See that road on the center left

Our Airbnb is just over the hill

The Market Street Bridge which is also fairly unique
