Spans the river Cam in this beautiful university town.  The bridge was jokingly named after the real Bridge of Sighs in Venice, where prisoners sighed as they crossed over water to prison. Here, the bridge was named for the somewhat less grim fate of students crossing the bridge from their dormitories to the exams awaiting them across the river.
View is of a spring day, with some trees lightly clad in spring color while others still in dormant winter mode.
