Astoria-Megler Bridge
The Astoria–Megler Bridge is a steel cantilever through-truss bridge in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States that spans the lower Columbia River. Its sweeping steel structure and dramatic angles make it a standout subject for photographers, especially when framed against the vast river or stormy coastal skies. Ideal shooting spots include the Astoria Riverwalk, the Cannery Pier, and the elevated viewpoint near the Astoria Column. Morning mist and golden hour light often enhance the bridge's details and reflections, while seasonal weather changes add variety to each visit. The bridge is easily accessible by car or on foot from Astoria’s waterfront, making it a convenient and visually rewarding location for both architectural and landscape photography.
