Description
This is the first lock gate on the Taunton to Bridgwater canal in Somerset. My son Steve is demonstrating how it would be closed. Zoom is best.
Have a good weekend.

Great presentation Jeff! Like the design of the walkway allowing traction.
Fascinating to me Jeff. Locks aren't something I have ever been familiar with.
Brings back memories of the year I left school and worked on the Wey navigation.
Interesting shot in motion!
nice one Jeff, a nice grouping of water and buildings making a really interesting picture.
Brilliant Jeff.
Nice shot - looks like hard work!
Wow what a cool pic this is something here i have never seen for sure.
Wonderful capture of this very interesting scene!
Wonderful capture! These are always fun, there are so many different types of lock gates and hanging bridges on the canals.
excellent capture
Excellent and interesting shot. Here manual work is required.
So interesting, Jeff. A cool shot, and its great to see your son!!!
Super shot of this awesome Lock gate. A quite beautiful place and a handsome son you got there.
Superb capture my friend. God Bless.
This is fascinating! How nice that they raised some of the bricks in order to give traction to the lockman. Excellent image!
See we've had green power for a long long time! ;D No fossil fuels needed. Excellent capture of this old lock gate! :)
SUPERLATIVE CAPTURE
I have only limited exposure to a few locks in Louisville, Kentucky and on the Arkansas river in Arkansas.very interesting Jeff
Nice photo and the person opening the lock got a free workout. No membership fee required.
very interesting picture and landscape!
It's a very old system !
These locks look so interesting to me as we haven't got any down here. It certainly is a great way to get around. A super capture.
Great shot Jeff, like the was you've shown the building at the back as well.. Good one! Rob
