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...

These locks on the Alster River at Hamburg, Germany, control water levels on Inner Alster Lake (Binnenalster). Downstream additional locks on the Alster protect the river from North Sea tides in the much larger Elbe River.

Looks like Toby's picked up Henry's "Luscious Locks" account.
I'm sure Canine Couture will be most happy with their new model.

... soap and shower cap!
Yes, I made the "shower cap" tonight. The largest circle I could cut out of a fat quarter (about 18" across), a quick pair of gathering stitches sewed around the edge, and Presto!
Oh - and then a sheet of paper towel tucked inside to give it a bit of personality.
Hubby made my day when he walked in the kitchen just as I was finishing and said "Shower cap?" :)

A quick drive down to Latchford Locks in Warrington to catch the last of the sunset. There was quite a flow of water flowing through the lock so I went for 5 min exposure to smooth out the water which seemed to work out ok

.. Bosley Locks are a flight of twelve locks on the Macclesfield Canal, designed by engineer Thomas Telford and built by resident engineer William Crosley under the supervision of Nowell and Sons, with construction occurring between the Macclesfield Canal's authorization in 1826 and its opening in 1831. The locks raise boats 118 feet, utilizing a unique design with double top gates and a blocking pin for efficiency. The flight was built to concentrate the canal's level change in one location due to the challenging hilly terrain.
