A walk with the family the other week saw us on a route which took in the famous Five Rise locks in Bingley. Unfortunately because it was a bit of a spur of the moment decision to go, the only camera to hand was a phone cam, but hey-ho.
There was a barge passing through the locks, which meant that the overflow channels (which are usually dry) were running, as above. It also meant lots of dramatic shots with water rushing through the locks as each was flooded in sequence. So we basically slowly followed the boat down the flight, snapping pics...
And arrival at the bottom of the locks.
Mindyou, the boat crew would then have to traverse Three Rise a few minutes later, but we didn't hang around for that one. Shame we didn't have an SLR but the camera on the phone seemed to cope pretty well, all things considered.
