Most would not think of these bridges as aesthetically appealing, but I have grown to see them as quite beautiful&hellip;.&rdquo; The result of this four-month project is the most extensive collection of Dayton&rsquo;s 35-year career.<\/p>\n<p>Now on display in an exhibition titled &ldquo;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.teddaytonphotography.com\/bridge\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">Beauty Is a Bridge<\/a>,&rdquo; the photographs range in size from 5 x 5 inches to 16 x 20 inches, matted in plain, black frames.
