A panoramic photograph of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. The flagship bridge of Florida that spans the Lower Tampa Bay. It connects Pinellas County (St. Petersburg) to Manatee County (Terra Ceia).
Beside the Sunshine Skyway Bridge are two long fishing piers for salt water fishing. It was once part of the old bridge. The fishing piers are now part of the Florida State Park.
We were exploring the areas around Tampa before we were heading for Key West. There were a lot of interesting places that we wanted to explore but time was not on our side. It was a matter of making the most of what we can do.

Nice bridge (and nice shot of it)!
Thank you! Structurally, it was attractive! We had our eyes open for bridges. I think it was in anticipation of crossing the often-mentioned 7-mile bridge going to Key West.
