Love lock on the Millennium Bridge. I was very lucky to find this as the locks are discouraged & removed frequently.
Many people remember when this bridge was first open & it swayed alarmingly when people walked on it. It no longers sways much - but it's still moves a bit, particularly noticeable when taking photos.
MSH "sway"
iPhone 3GS custom lock screen. Lock slider is hidden using winterboard. Free RAM is displayed on top next to the clock; was able to get that after messing around with settings in SBSettings. Any other questions just ask.
An old lock, expressly for Wikipedia.
As you can see there is no need to be a skilled burglar to open it: it is enough to have something lifting the shoe-shaped piece and pushing the latch at the same time.
Una vecchia serratura, espressamente per Wikipedia.
Come potete vedere non c'è bisogno di essere un esperto scassinatore per aprirla: basta avere qualcosa che sollevi il pezzo a forma di scarpa e spinga il chiavistello nello stesso tempo.
While I was shooting this evening for a whole set of 'New Wonderland', this lock caught my attention the most =D
And I'm still in the mood for some HDR ^_^
Teddington Lock is a complex of three locks and a weir on the River Thames between Ham and Teddington in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, England. It was first built in 1810.
The limit of legal powers between the Port of London Authority, the navigation authority downstream to the North Sea and that upstream to small headwaters of the river, the Environment Agency, is marked nearby by an obelisk on the Surrey bank. Teddington Weir marks the river's usual tidal limit and is the lowest on the Thames. This lock is the lowest full-tide lock and second lowest of all-tide locks on the Thames.
The complex of civil engineering consists of a large long weir and three locks: a conventional launch lock in regular use, a very large barge lock and a small skiff lock. The barge lock was made to accommodate long barges, steamers or passenger ferries and has an additional set of gates half-way to operate more quickly for shorter craft. The staggered structures incorporate two reinforced narrow islands. The upper island is traversed by and accessible by the lock gates or Teddington Lock Footbridge.
Currently the structure of the bridge is struggling to hold because of all the locks weighing it down. They are taking off panels of the locks and replacing them with glass and wooden boards, which are now being vandalized (beautifully).
I think a lock is science because of the mechanics and what goes on inside the lock to make the door open.
The rusty lock on the galvanized steel door of the wood shed. It's been there a long time, but still opens with the key. If you look closely, the spider webs are visible.
This old lock catched my eye, because of the great color with the door and the lovely handcrafted details.. They don't make these anymore...
