Very well balanced frame! Very beautiful composition!

My dear Füsun
Thank you for visiting!
I am pleased you found it interesting.
When I arrived there I could see a bright light at the end of the tunnel. I took many pictures as it came closer, and finally emerged. I am glad you like the one I chose!!
Love Peter

Hi Peter,

Is that the entrance to the tunnel we just see in the distance!? I have to say I don't like going through the long tunnels but I certainly like your picture. It is beautifully captured.

Best wishes, Rosa.

Hi Rosa ,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I am pleased you found it interesting.
You are right, there is light at the end of the tunnel..
This boat will now have to continue through 30 locks (the longest lock flight in Britain) to get to Stoke Wharf.

Best Wishes,
Peter

Hi Peter,
Well, I have learned something, as I thought the Caen Hill locks on the K&A in Devizes was the longest, but they have just 29 locks!

Best wishes, Rosa.

Nicely captured Peter, great timing ;-)

Hi June,

A beautiful image Peter and a well timed shot. I always think it looks such a peaceful way to travel. Love this one.

Hi Carol,
Thank you very much!
I am so happy that you like the scene.
Not so peaceful going through all those locks though!!
Best Wishes,
Peter

Oh wow, what fun! I would really love to jump aboard. :)
Nice timing, great angle, and that boat is just so darn cute! :)

Hi Janet ,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
Glad you like it.
This kind of boat was our means of transporting goods before the railways came. Generally known as 'Narrow Boats' they were built to a standard size to fit the locks, but are now mostly used for leisure.
Best Wishes,
Peter

Great timing and perfect composition Peter and I love the light at the other end of the tunnel,
All the best Rog.

Hi Roger ,
Thank you very much!
Glad you like it.
When I arrived on the canal bank I could just see a bright light shining through the tunnel, so I waited, taking a picture every couple of minutes, until the boat began to emerge, then of course a whole string of pictures to pick from!
Best Wishes, and a Good Weekend,
Peter
