That wasn't their first choice. They wanted to use a picture of something else, but they weren't able to get permission, so they settled for the Palladian bridge. Their original plans were to come to America and shoot the Washington Monument but due to security risks they were not allowed. Next they looked into using old photos of the Washington Monument from a photo agency, but they weren't happy with the lighting. The photos didn't set the mood as they had wanted. So, they changed their plans again and went to Oklahoma to photograph the buffalo on the prairie. This proved to be too dangerous more trouble than it was worth. The band's manager put a stop to the project after a close call with a mad bull. Finally they decided to use a photo easier to obtain and picked the Palladian bridge in England for their Morningrise Album Cover. So, as their third choice, the Palladian bridge photo shoot went off without a hitch and made a wonderful album cover for their Morningrise album.
