Seen on a bridge in Bristol.It seems that you and a loved one put the lock on the bridge,and then throw the key into the water,symbolising that you will never be parted.
Experimenting with depth of field and lighting.

Wenn man genau hinguckt, sieht man, dass Kette und Schloss ihren Zweck nicht mehr so richtig erfüllen können :-)

The Manchester Bolton & Bury Canal is a disused canal in Greater Manchester, England, built to link Bolton and Bury with Manchester. The canal, when fully opened, was 15 miles 1 furlong (24.3 km) long. It was accessed via a junction with the River Irwell in Salford. Seventeen locks were required to climb to the summit as it passed through Pendleton, heading northwest to Prestolee before it split northwest to Bolton and northeast to Bury. Between Bolton and Bury the canal was level and required no locks. Six aqueducts were built to allow the canal to cross the rivers Irwell and Tonge and several minor roads.
The canal was commissioned in 1791 by local landowners and businessmen and built between 1791 and 1808, during the Golden Age of canal building, at a cost of £127,700 (£9.73 million today).Originally designed for narrow gauge boats, during its construction the canal was altered into a broad gauge canal to allow an ultimately unrealised connection with the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. The canal company later converted into a railway company and built a railway line close to the canal's path, which required modifications to the Salford arm of the canal.
Most of the freight carried was coal from local collieries but, as the mines reached the end of their working lives sections of the canal fell into disuse and disrepair and it was officially abandoned in 1961. In 1987 a society was formed with the aim of restoring the canal for leisure use and, in 2006, restoration began in the area around the junction with the River Irwell in Salford. The canal is currently navigable as far as Oldfield Road, Salford.
Day 17, Panama Canal:
The viewing point at the front of the Columbus was packed with people as we passed through the first set of three locks raising the ship up.
The main building of the Miraflores Locks on the Panama Canal, Panama, is between the two series of locks.
Locks on the Ponte Vecchio are put there by lovers. After "locking" their love on one of the horse tethers, they throw the key over the bridge into the Arno River to "seal" their love!
Today, early morning, under a cold rain... I was walking through Ponte Vecchio going to work and for the first time in 7 year I decided to take some pictures of this interesting usage... I think for this time, to lock my new love I'm going to buy some locks, just in case...

A sunrise photo taken at the 5 Rise Locks, which as the name suggests, lifts/lowers a boat through 5 locks. The locks are the steepest flock of Locks in the UK with a rise of 18ft 2 inches over 320 ft. The morning calmness resulted in a longer exposure to flatten the foreground water out.

The Leeds and Liverpool Canal - stretching 127 miles and taking 46 years to complete - is truly
one of the wonders of the industrial age.
The final stretch of the canal in Wigan was one of the most difficult to build but is a
extraordinary feet of engineering. Over
three miles to Top Lock, the terrain rises
200 feet and incorporates a magnificent
flight of 23 locks.
Foxton Locks are ten canal locks consisting of two "staircases" each of five locks, located on the Leicester line of the Grand Union Canal about three miles west of the Leicestershire town of Market Harborough. They date from 1810 and are named after the nearby village of Foxton. They form the northern terminus of a 20-mile summit level that passes Husbands Bosworth, Crick and ends with the Watford flight
Staircase locks are used where a canal needs to climb a steep hill, and consist of a group of locks where each lock opens directly into the next, that is, where the bottom gates of one lock form the top gates of the next. Foxton Locks are the largest flight of such staircase locks on the English canal system.
At the bottom of the flight is the Foxton Locks Inn, the cream-coloured building just right of centre. This is a very popular pub-restaurant. Just beyond it, out of shot, is the junction for the Market Harborough Arm of the canal.
