The new noise barrier being constructed behind the old noise fence in south Windsor. The old fence will be torn down and the area landscaped to match the previous conditions.
The Churchill Barriers were built during the second world war to protect Scapa Flow from German U-boat attacks. Providing road links between the Orkney Mainland and some of the southern islands was a secondary consideration.
This is a level crossing railway barrier, raised and ready for action. I pass this thing with a camera in hand pretty much every day (for at least the last 6 months). This is the first time it's occured to me to take a photo of it. I'm rather pleased with the result
Here is another view of the Thames barrier in which it's possible to see the towers of Canary Wharf in the background. There is some work going on around which prevented me to move a couple of steps on the left in order to get the towers in between the barrier ...
The Thames barrier are located downstream on the river to protect London from being flooded after a record high tide or a rise of the sea nearby.
About the photo : it's an HDR image made from 3 differently exposed photos (-2,0, +2 ev), tone-mapped with Photomatix and fine tuned with Lightroom. This late stage took me ages as I wanted to mimize the "ugly HDR" look visible on the early versions even on the thumbnail size !
Thanks for reading this.
Enjoy your week-end.
Notice this while I was trying to peer through a gap in the barrier at the work going on. No luck, they're really not letting us look.

I was so cold at this point - could hardly feel my fingers! I wanted to keep shooting but ended up going home to warm up.
through the barrier of a nearby carpark, one can watch people walking briskly to the railway station
If you aren't going all the way, why go at all?

Baring Barrier is one of the Thames river defences.
The Barking Barrier, on Barking Creek at the confluence of the River Thames and Roding, comprises of a 38.6 metre wide, 320 ton navigable gate and three smaller 12 metre non-navigable low level wing gates, which are provided to maintain the natural river level.
The navigation opening at Barking is closed by a 38 metre wheel mounted vertical lift gate which, when open, is stored 34 metres above the high water to provide clearance for boats.
Totally bokehly. For those as yet to visit the City of Culture 2017, this is the River Hull tidal barrier, taken from the point of The Deep.
The dashed lines and dots at the bottom are the lights of the barrier, inverted and reflected in the UV filter (I assume).

The Thames Barrier is the world's second largest movable flood barrier (after the Oosterscheldekering in the Netherlands) and is located downstream of central London. Its purpose is to prevent London from being flooded by exceptionally high tides and storm surges moving up from the sea. It only needs to be raised during high tide; at ebb tide it can be lowered to release the water that backs up behind it. Its northern bank is in Silvertown in the London Borough of Newham and its southern bank is in the New Charlton area of Charlton in the London Borough of Greenwich.
