What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

Five years ago it was the comings and goings at Stenson Lock on the Trent & Mersey Canal, a gongoozling Photography Friday with Rachel.

The lock itself is visible through the bridge and to the right is the excellent Stenson Lock Coffee Shop (their breakfasts are well worth trying).
