The only ways to correct for this are either keeping the plane of your camera sensor parallel to the structure, using a tilt-shift lens, or by using software to correct for the distortion in post-processing. This will cause the top of the structure to appear smaller than its base, and depending on what the structure is, look very un-natural. Photographing bridges (and any architecture in general) requires paying very careful attention to perspective, which can become skewed when you tilt the camera upwards to fit the entire building or structure into the frame. But finally after much planning and private/public financial support, the 25- to 35-feet wide concrete walkway, which is 1.25 miles long, will give everyone the chance to enjoy amazing views of the Hudson River and surrounding areas. Originally built in 1888 as the Poughkeepsie-Highland railroad bridge, it was forced to close in 1974 after a fire outbreak. On Saturday Oct 3rd, the Walkway Over the Hudson will finally open to the public and become the longest span in the world.
