A mansion's grounds viewed from the canal
Detail shot of the shore treatment
The sleepy, early morning draw-bridge operator
The draw bridge over the canal
Cute little orange cars of the lock personnel near the upcoming lock
The boat leaves the first lock behind
Cross currents ahead are indicated by signs on shore
Water so still it seems like a mirror
Approaching a lock ahead just past a bridge
The big arrow shows the canal's route
A humble pier with a can beside it
A rundown shack in the river beside the canal The side of the shack as it abuts the canal Row boats docked along the shore A forest of stubby trees A green house on shore A British canal boat motors ahead
British canal boats are thin because British canals are narrow Man fishes in front of blue houses Path and trees form an arrow pointing in the direction of travel The The dock which the House on river shore parallel to the canal
Semi-wilds reflected in the still canal water Rowboat parked on the shore of the canal Bridge over the canal Detail of footing of the bridge over the canal Mansion behind trees with child's swing Approaching a suspiciously tidy forest
It is not a forest, but a planting of trees in rows A couple out for a stroll on the path alongside the canal Fisherman with a really long poll Bicycle rider passes the boat Kid wave at the camera from a bridge A heron take flight
Kids on shore camp it up for the camera Weeping willows on the shore of the canal Kids on shore wave at the camera (hard to believe the wave is French) An abandoned factory on shore Approaching Amiens, France Approaching Amiens, France
A motor boat motors out through the open lock Falling in roof and strange columns seen from the canal That is one lawn that would be very tough to mow Two girls with bicycles walk them over the lock gate A wonderful British steam powered narrow boat A second steam powered British boat follows along too
The back of French apartments seen from the canal The front of French apartments with workers seen from the canal The roof of French apartments a worker seen from the canal Departing yet another lock on the canal Looking back at the lock from which the boat just departed A strange lean-to in a field seen from the canal
Wash drying as seen from the canal Detail shot of a manual lock A hand crank in the hole above turns and raise the lock opening Cows in a field of rest as seen from the passing canal An old rusting barge tied to the shore with grass growing from its cracks Nude statues gaze inward at a mansion
Man fishes from an arched metal bridge
