The Queen Emma pontoon swing bridge and the Otrabanda side of Santa Anna Bay at Willemstad, Curacao.

The Queen Emma pontoon swing bridge and the Otrabanda side of Santa Anna Bay in Willemstad harbour, Curacao. The photographer is on the Punda district side of the bay looking west-north-west showing the pontoon bridge detached from the Punda side between pontoons 15 and 16. Foot passengers are behind a barrier on the Otrabanda side but two women are well across the bridge with nowhere to go. Motor vehicles are parked on the Otrabanda quay road and the buildings fronting the bay include the Wonder Bar and the Hotel A mericano and a building with a Philips light bulb logo on the roof.
