Ship in Lock 7
Its hard to capture the size of the ships that pass through the locks in the Welland Canal. They completely fill the available space, with no more than a foot to spare on the sides and 10 feet or so at the ends. Its clear the size of the locks determine the size of the ships built.
This one, sitting in lock 7, is right beside the road and is in a great location to get a close look at the ships.
