Sunset on the Tyne - Newcastle & Gateshead Bridges | Digital Download

A spectacular sunset over the River Tyne, with the Newcastle and Gateshead skyline bathed in fiery orange and gold. This striking aerial photograph captures one of the North East's most recognisable views as the setting sun transforms the river into a ribbon of molten gold.

Dominating the foreground is the Gateshead Millennium Bridge, the world's first tilting bridge, which made its first tilt in 2001. Alongside it stands the sweeping glass and steel architecture of The Glasshouse International Centre for Music, formerly Sage Gateshead. Further upstream, the magnificent Tyne Bridge, officially opened in 1928, rises above the river, with the historic Swing Bridge beneath it.

The extraordinary orange sky, silhouetted bridges and golden reflections make this a particularly dramatic photograph, bringing together the industrial heritage and modern architecture of Newcastle and Gateshead.

A stunning statement piece for any home or office, and an ideal gift for proud Geordies, North East expats or anyone with a special connection to Newcastle, Gateshead and the River Tyne.
