TITLE: Strength in Silence

This architecture is called Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge, the longest span bridge in the world, located in Japan.

When this bridge was constructing, a big earthquake happened.
Although its magnitude was 7.3, this bridge was not damaged seriously.

When I saw this bridge, I felt that it was not only a large-scale bridge, but also there was great force of engineers' will that involved in its construction. I could feel their will because I'm also an engineer.

In this photography, I want to express not only the strength of bridge but also the will of engineers, in contrast with the gentle ocean waves and the moving clouds.

This is the reason that I took this photography.
