Not a Roman aqueduct. Laura was crossing the Susquehanna at Harrisburg, heading toward Pittsburgh. The river is nearly a mile wide there, spanned by railroad trestles, high enough to withstand flooding. Anjali held up her cellphone and clicked. Then they were on the other side. For a song about another wide river, the Missouri, check out Jerry Garcia's "Shenandoah Lullaby." (Jerry's been gone 20 years this month.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vB0O1mUBj6I 8/17/2015 12:11:50 am
Wow! Taken with an iPhone from a moving car.

Alan, all I know is that if I tried that, the photo would be lopsided and blurry. Have no idea what the process was. Artists just do.

Nice photo but Pittsburgh should be off limits for Mets fans for a while. Comments are closed.

Had a wonderful time on the #NYTReadalong Sunday with Sree Sreenivasan and Neil Parekh, talking about the Super Bowl and the great paper where I used to work. Here’s the link to my fun time. Thanks to all the nice people who sent messages while I was babbling. The Readalong is Sunday, 8:30-10:15 AM Eastern, and the link is available after that:
