About	Right in the heart of London there is this relic of the days when the commercial backbone of England was the set of canals. The long narrow boats are now largely used as houseboats or for floating holidays...

Great image, Roger. I've seen the canals and locks in Stratford, and read a lot about them in "Three Men in A Boat" :-) but I had no idea that they existed in the heart of London to this day. Does this lock still function? I'm assuming the boats actually move along the canals. I love the colors; typically England.

Thank you. Tye canals still criss-cross England, and are generally well maintained by enthusiasts who like to travel them in these narrow boats. The lock at Camden still functions, and we watched a boat ride up to the higher level with an elderly woman sitting in the prow (I have a photo of her). I have found (after two years!) some settings that help my D200 to give natural colouring, and I am a little more pleased with it now...
