Lock 9 along the historic Hennepin Canal in Northern Illinos that connects the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers.
Left on a bridge in downtown Copenhagen. It surely contains the strongest and deepest feelings from two persons at that moment. Locked to represent the endurance and longevity of their love. I wish it fulfills this role. Good luck :-)
A vintage Awan lock and key. These were apparently used in maritime operations, but other than that, I do not know much about this lock. Taken with a Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm 3.5 on an extension tube.
Seen in Venice, shot with A7rII and Loxia 85mm 2.4
@Jonathan this one is clearly inspired by your work :-)
Zoos have evolved over the years to make the life of an animal less and less traumatic, although it is still a prison for entertainment. Unlike those parks where the work to preserve species and recover those at risk of extinction seems to me to be an extremely important social and environmental job. Seeing that there are still zoos where you see that it is simply a prison makes me sad and angry, seeing the aggressive attitude of many animals in these zoos already gives you an idea of the discomfort they feel there and in those conditions. I have mixed feelings, but I am clear that if they gave me the option to choose, I would release them all. I dedicate this series to all those animals that in one way or another live in a prison, or simply have their freedom stolen from them.
Los zoo durante años han evolucionado para que cada vez sea menos traumática la vida de un animal, aunque sigue siendo una cárcel para entretener. A diferencia de aquellos parques donde el trabajo para preservar especies y recuperar aquellas en riesgo de extinción me parece un trabajo social y ambiental sumamente importante. Ver que todavía existan zoo donde ves que simplemente es una cárcel me genera tristeza y rabia, ver la actitud agresiva de muchos animales en estos zoo ya te dan a entender el malestar que tienen estando allí y en esas condiciones. Tengo mis sentimientos encontrados, pero tengo claro que si me dan la opción a elegir, los soltaría a todos.. Esta serie se la dedico a todos aquellos animales que de una u otra manera viven en una cárcel, o simplemente les roban su libertad.
Lock gates on the Forth and Clyde Canal, near Falkirk. I'm always impressed with these feats of historic engineering (even more impressive when you see a series of stepped locks, like Neptune's Staircase), allowing boats and barges to move onto a different height level of the canal. The water constantly sluicing over the top of the gates was just crying out for black and white pics.
Okkkk... this is seriously the longest I've ever worked on a picture... and I basically hate it. Grrrr. It's supposed to be that Dani is sad and upset and Simon is trying to comfort her, but he can't get to her. In a way it's kinda supposed to be about depression, that although when you have depression you feel all alone, there really are people who try to be there for you, you just may not notice. Soo yea there's a lot of smudging everywhere. I added a lot to Dani's hair to make it have volume instead of just looking like she was wearing a mop on her head. The door was a pain in my ass, that's why it looks so bad. For both Dani and Simon I had to manually cut every bit of them out and then patchwork them back together... my eyes are killing me o_O
Anyways... Comments? Suggestions? Anything is gratefully welcome for this one >___<
Sometimes graffiti isn't always enjoyable but this spray created an interesting shape and colour. I returned to take another image a few days later and it had been 'repaired' so this is never to be repeated!

It was a beautiful autumn day to shoot some Polaroids at the lock.
While not accurate the title seemed to work better with horns than antlers.....more commonly used, for many reasons.
These 2 elk bulls put on a good show. More in play and practice then harming each other. Prep for future battles to come over lady elk against bigger bulls.
Enjoy a wonderful weekend!!
11,538 tonne self-discharging bulk carrier operated by Mibau Stema Group (IMO 9101730), Arriving from Aabenraa in Denmark and being manoeuvred into the lock by VB Thamesbank.
Returning the gaze and locking eyes with the extraordinary sight of a Barred Owl and its naturalist handler.
A love lock in black and white that I saw on Monteliusvägen in Stockholm. I wonder if they're still together?
