The Natchez Trace Parkway runs through a long stretch of wooded country, and this view shows the roadway slipping beneath a concrete overpass with tall pines standing close on either side. The Parkway was built by the National Park Service as a scenic route that follows the old Natchez Trace, a network of footpaths and wagon roads used for centuries by Indigenous peoples and later by travelers moving between the Mississippi River and Nashville. Its designers kept the road gently curved and largely free of commercial traffic, shaping bridges like this one to blend with the landscape. The black-and-white film of the picture lets the shadows under the span and the rows of pines stand out clearly.
