Captured with a 45mm shifting and tilt/swing lens and a DSLR camera. A bit of swing kept the side of the trestle in sharp focus, and a bit of shift enabled the framing.

The long, tall, Alhambra Viaduct on the BNSF railroad is also known as the "John Muir Trestle". People far bolder than I had tagged it with graffiti.

This is mostly a study in lines and convergence.

Infrastructure is heroic.
