Catkins dangling in the spring-like sunshine on the banks of the River Wear in Sunderland, NE England. In the background, the Northern Spire crossing.

Feeling spring-like at Sunderland's Northern Spire, today.
A more perfect spot to sit and enjoy the view (and the weather) on the banks of the River Wear would be hard to find – if only there was a bench!

Good morning from NE England. This image of the Northern Spire Bridge was not taken today, but it could have been, because we actually have sunshine today.

In the dead of night, a huge barge is being gently towed up the River Wear in Sunderland, transporting the central pylon of the city's brand new river crossing. The barge is pictured here passing the National Glass Centre.

Nine years ago and in the dead of night, a barge is towed up the River Wear in Sunderland, NE England. Strapped to its deck is the central pylon for what will become the 'Northern Spire', the name of a brand new bridge.

Heading to Roker Beach, Sunderland tomorrow morning to shoot my next YouTube video.

It's not far, but I will be passing the beautiful Northern Spire Bridge on the way. Probably not stopping to get a shot like this though.

A very good morning from NE England. Hope you're all well and having a good weekend.

This morning's image is another from our local bridge, the Northern Spire.
