The unusual diamond-shaped Aynho Weir Lock on the Oxford Canal. The odd shape is to allow a larger amount of water to pass through the lock with each working, as its shallow drop was not allowing sufficient water to pass on to the next section of canal. 3rd September 1996.
Locked up to be left behind in hell...

This is another outtake from my 2016 Photo a Day Project 366. This photo was one I particularly liked, but it just didn't make the day's cut. (For anyone who's curious, this was the photo I posted that day: flic.kr/p/JxJjdY).
This image worked for me because of the simplicity of the composition, the lines and shapes of the fence and the lock, and the added visual interest of the shadows.
275: Locked-Up
The new European Headquarters for one of our businesses really has a nice, open, well-lit layout. However, there is one meeting area on the fifth floor, that they call "The Lion's Cage". It is a bit of a strange design element, consider the rest of the building has such a bright, free feeling. To me, it had more of an "incarcerated" look and feel, so my colleagues were nice enough to let me lock them up and grab a shot. From the photo, you might wonder if they should ever be allowed back into mainstream society. Solitary perhaps?
The only lock on the canal is known as Maureen's Lock after Maureen Shaw who was born on the water and lived in the cottage by the Wardle Canal until she died in 2012
There are eleven locks on the Aston flight as the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal makes its way between Aston Junction and Holborn Hill. Here we see a close-up of Lock 5 as explored in March 2016 - Nick, Stephen and I enjoyed a morning walk along the towpath that day prior to visiting the Walsall Beer Festival.
Trent Lock is a major waterway junction where rivers and canals meet. It's a good spot to view one of England's awesome rivers - and a great place to spot boats ...situated on the borders of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire
I'm turning the mechanism to open the lock doors. Well, only for the picture and not really because I don't want to accidentally cause a flooding. Also sweet ladies like me are delicate and just cannot do any labor (which btw is what I always say when I'm girlie). Anyway, all the locks in this canal are operated manually and I think that any boatmen passing through the lock would be delighted with my elegant assistance.
