Last photographs of the day. Over on South Congress Ave. Racks of "Love Locks."

 


Images taken with the Leica SL2-S and the Sigma Contemporary 90mm f2.8.
A nice combination for work in low light and work up near the 
minimum focusing distance. Nice out of focus rendering as well. 










f3.5 and be there.

    If these locks are a thing, I hope it fades quickly.

      Hi Gary! Why? This installation is on the side of a building, is not a safety issue, is not a danger to the structure and is hardly visited by people on a regular basis. Besides, some of the colors are pretty. Problem with locks?

    There's a footbridge here in Ottawa where the city has to cut off all the locks periodically because the added weight stresses the structure.

      Oh Eeyore. The lock are on a grating put on the wall of a gift shop that sells the locks. The grating was specifically designed and installed for the locks. Not everything in the world is fraught with peril and destruction.
