Locked!

Entrusted, encrusted, and rusted.

The Middle Docks in South Shields are being dismantled and demolished to make way for new riverside developments. I was attracted by the colours and textures of this chain and padlock, the only post processing here is a little sharpening (although it is not too apparent in it's compressed form.)

Shame about the docks. Another piece of Britain's heritage confined to the landfill. I've never seen a padlock like that before.
