Drove up to Lock and Dam 14 to try my luck at photographing eagles. About 5 hours total driving for the day but was definitely worth the trip. Cant wait to go back next year.
I locked the keys in the car!! Dang. Not a fun end to the day. At least it was raining and cold. A kind man helped me out to get a hold of ADAC. The whole ordeal took about 3.5 hours.

"The Muskingum River, because of its size and location, has played an important role in Ohio's history. Its watershed drains 8,036 square miles, an area equal to one-fifth of the entire state. It remains the longest continually navigable river traversing Ohio, due to the series of locks and dams that date back to 1841."
I think this is Pulteney Lock, or Lock 12.
The Kennet & Avon Canal was designed by John Rennie, and was constructed between 1794 and 1810; the Bath-Devizes section opened in 1804. In 1852 the canal was bought by its main competitor, the Great Western Railway, who raised tolls and slowly decreased maintenance. The GWR were refused permission to close the canal in 1926, but by the time of nationalisation large parts of it were no longer navigable. Restoration started following the 1963 separation of British Rail and British Waterways, and was formally announced complete in 1990.
I was looking of some images from a visit I made to a Railway collector who lives near me. This man has rescued moved to his property and restored a train station, a general store, several sections of rail track and a railway maintenance shed. This is the lock on the door of that shed, he told me the shed was one of many that once stood alone the rail line for mantenance crews to store parts and tools for repairing sections of track.
I did this as a 5 shot HDR processed in NIK HDR pro and PS CS6
Keeping with the "all that is shiny theme" of ATTN2Detail; comes a chrome plated keyed lock for the front.
Never know when you'll need to lock away your computer mod from a gaggle of QC gammers. ;)
A Welcome Swallow locked on to a possible meal, NZ...
The water surface was like a mirror which enabled me to capture a perfect reflection of the Swallow as it came down low to investigate.
Barely half a step ahead of no lock at all. It's not tied to anything. It's long enough to slip over the seat, so is only connected to the rack. And yes, the blue part is 100% plastic. The bike is probably less than US$50 new, so is cheaper than a quality lock I guess.

The mill is on the site of Osney Abbey and was built in 1845. It was worked by a water turbine.
Ruined by fire in 1945, it has now been made into flats.
My first eagle trip this season. It was a really overcast and gray day so quite a bit of post processing was necessary. I went to Lock and Dam 18 this morning, near Gladstone, Illinois and across from Burlington, Iowa. The eagle count there a week ago was over 200 - and I must say I have never seen so many eagles in one place - it was so awesome to watch. Unfortunately, there was no way to get close enough to the area where they were fishing - so no decent fishing shots. But they did fly overhead and perch in the trees close in. The afternoon was Lock 14 on the Iowa side of the river near Davenport. Last year for my first trip to photograph the eagles there were many eagles there, too, and they were fishing close to the viewing area - but today only 6 or 7 and they weren't very active - so I resorted to shooting gulls, geese, etc. Fun day, even though not ideal shooting conditions. Going back with my sister and brother sometime in January.
