That's the end! This view from the Honshu mainland toward Takamatsu on Shikoku island is the last in the series of my New Year trip around Shikoku that I've been posting since January.

@Witchpanther: Thanks Witchpanther!
A shot full of atmosphere! I like the silhouette of the bridge crawling like a huge snake from island to island. And the mountainbacks in the haze are full of poetry!

@Michael Skorulski: Thank you Michael.
Very nice, I like the feeling of distance given by the progressively paler mountains in the background. P.S.: Your question about the edibility of the "barbotte" yesterday: Yes, they are edible, although I don't like their taste. They are bottomfeeders in murky water... Also, in the particular case of our little local lake, there is still quite a bit of pollution in the water, so the health authorities suggest not to eat them more than once a month, for me that is just another reason not o eat any.

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Thanks Wolfgang!
Based on your information, I wouldn't want to eat a barbotte either - even once a month!
Really beautiful shot with a futuristic look.

@standley: Thank you standley!
Beautiful picture with all those bridges and the view on shikoku. May be a little bit of rotation? this is not an horizon that we see and the bridge poles might be vertical, just a feeling of leaning on the left :)
