This is an old bridge that was built in 1870 for the wagons to cross over Little Mary's river in Chester Illinois. It was closed and marked as a national landmark in 1930. I changed the contrast and fixed the color.

This is a very nice, peaceful photo. I really like the country feel to it. Maybe someday you could revisit this place and get a shot with a beep blue sky and some clouds. I think this shot should have scored higher. :)
Thanks for the comment you were kind enough to leave on my obsolete entry.
Congratulations on finding a very different subject. It works well and deserves at least this good finish.
The photo is very well done, I like the composition, the color that befits the challenge, the lighting and overall effect gr8. However as for the disuse, obsolete nature I need to be convinced before I can vote this as being in the bounds of the challenge. // Ok. then if it is a 30 year old monument I shall move you from a noncompliant 1 to a well deserved 7. Congrats.
