"A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we're pretending to be."

Sun setting at Muirtown Locks in Inverness looking onto the Beauly firth at the entrance to the Caledonian Canal.
The day was winding down at the farm when Eva and her step-siblings came through the gate, out on a walk. She's a unique beauty, an Afghan hound. I showed the chickens to her family, who enjoyed patting a friendly hen. Eva then posed nicely for some photos. She's a great model and I hope to see her again soon.

I seem to be in a rut of local sunset views at the moment! This is the view from the locks by The Mill at Condor Green looking due West towards Glasson Dock.
I had a plan to get this shot a little earlier in the Year when the setting sun is fully aligned with the canal, but the weather never seemed to play ball! So thats a plan that will have to wait.
Anyway, this is a branch of the Lancaster Canal that gives access to the Sea at the small Port of Glasson. I like the small copse of Beech trees by the White House on the left, but wasn't too sure about the lady dog walker heading through the Car Park on the right! However, I decided to let her remain in shot!

for Crazy Tuesday
I know I have interpreted the theme differently, but I don't see anywhere in the discussions that says the locks must be of the metal, security kind. I hope you will accept my granddaughter beautiful locks as acceptable to the theme today.
It was a beautiful afternoon yesterday, so I drove across to Foxton Locks near Market Harborough in south Leicester. These are on the Leicester Arm of the Grand Union Canal, and were completed in 1814. There are two "staircases" each of five locks. In the picture we can see two of the balancing ponds, with the lock-keeper's cottage, far left, at the top of the flight of locks. At this time of year most canal boats are moored in their marinas for the winter and there is little activity on the canals .
Foxton Locks are on the Grand Union Canal's Leicester Arm, just outside Market Harborough. The two staircases, both comprising five locks, were constructed in 1814. Here we are looking across one of the balancing ponds towards the old lock-keeper's cottage, which is by the top lock. The cottage and the adjacent former stables to the left (the orange brick building) have now been converted into a tea-room.
All the lines caused by railings around the lock made for an interesting pattern in black and white. I did have the traditional boat going through a lock but this was more intriguing.

Crusing along the Grand Canal as the barge Cadhla meanders up to the lock at Herbert Place on an evening private party.
Having been mothballed for the past two years due to the covid pandemic, the Cadhla barge is cruising again during summer 2022, usually weekend evening runs, offering food, drinks & some amazing views at a slower pace.
