The bottom lock at Braunston is part of the Braunston Lock Flight, a series of six locks on the Grand Union Canal in Braunston, Northamptonshire. These locks help boats navigate a 35-foot rise in elevation as they move between the lower and upper sections of the canal. The bottom lock is the first lock encountered when heading uphill toward Braunston Tunnel. It’s a busy spot, especially during summer, as Braunston is a major junction where the Grand Union and Oxford Canals meet. The lock is surrounded by charming countryside, making it a favourite among boaters and walkers.

Yes! Today (December 23rd 2018) is the day: one million total views on Flickr. Two and a half years of hard work finally got me here.
But to be honest, I haven't got a clue what it means, it's just a number. The first picture of mine that hit the 100 views or the ten faves on Flickr was far more exciting than this...

A view of Mapledurham Lock, as seen from the track between Whitchurch and Mapledurham, tales on my recent walk.
I have a fascination with keys and I collect them so I may be working with them more in future photo projects. I think these keys and lock may have gone to an old suitcase.

The little lock in Arboga. I got a nice sunset this evening, but the blue hour turned a bit bland as the clouds dissipated.

Short Eared Owls battling over territory. Most of these encounters were non physical, but in this case they came to grips - and fell towards the ground after this shot - only breaking grip at the last moment.

Came across this photograph of Newbury Lock from last year. Nothing special about it but I do recall it was a lovely warm summer day and we could do with some of those right now!
The lock is located in the centre of Newbury and was built in 1796 as part of a project to link the town by canal to the western city of Bath.
Today the waterway is used mainly by small boat users for pleasure purposes and provides access to beautiful countryside and wildlife. It also provides towpaths for walkers for most of its length.
