This picture was taken at the Hohenzollernbrücke in Cologne, Germany. These locks are a sign of love for young and old couples in love.

 

It is estimated that (since 2008) 40.000 locks were installed with a weight of 15 tons.

 

Taken with 1000D @ 70mm

This is the second bike lock to be left hanging on the railings at the park.

If I got locked away

And we lost it all today

Tell me honestly, would you still love me the same?

If I showed you my flaws

If I couldn’t be strong

Tell me honestly, would you still love me the same?

What do you see? An object on its side left to right, or an object tilting up right to left?

Hint: It's a tiny keyhole on a luggage lock, 24 image focus stack.

This is a shot of a lock keepers cottage on the canal, near to Wistow Park, the small gate on the left is a right of way footpath down to the canal. The original cottage has been modified quite considerably.

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.

Another misty view of Triggs Lock taken a few weeks back now.

Another take with Planar 50mm f1.4 Closed down a little, it has excellent sharpness. Just a pinch of contrast is added during conversion to BW.

A winter view of the lock and cottage

Chains and padlocks on the winding posts at Calcott locks on the Grand union canal preventing boat movements through the locks caused by lack of water in the canal system.

An outbuilding in Darling, Western Cape, used to store tools and other "stuff".

(PS Edit: Couldn't make out what the other stuff was, it was too dark inside. :-))

one from the last day i took the "texture" shot, a rare hour free with no work or kids, i was trying to think of abstract shots of everyday things we see, good practice!

So many ideas were rolling through my head this week.

“A key that opens many locks is worth buying.

A lock that can be opened with many keys isn't.”

"The most important things are the hardest to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them -- words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That's the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for want of an understanding ear."
