Fotoeins Friday: Crown of locks on Frankfurt’s Eiserner Steg
The Eiserner Steg (Iron Footbridge, 1869) is a pedestrian-only bridge over the Main (word pronounced like “mine”) river in Frankfurt am Main which connects the city’s Römerberg and Old Town on the north flank with the Museum Embankment and Sachsenhausen on the south flank. My glance to the city’s “Main-hattan” skyline found clusters of love-locks hanging from the bridge structure. Whatever your opinions are about these love-locks, they make a great compositional feature.
Other love locks:
• Cologne’s Hohenzollernbrücke
• Heidelberg’s Alte Brücke (Old Bridge)
I made this photo above on 20 November 2014 with the Canon EOS6D, 24-105 L zoom-lens, and the following settings: 1/20s, f/4, ISO4000 and 24mm focal length. This post appears on Fotoeins Fotopress on fotoeins.com as http://wp.me/p1BIdT-7WE.

Great shot you got there. It seems like those love locks are all over the world. I even saw some on my last trip in India.

Hi and thanks, Cornelia. What I find just as interesting as the “divide” love-locks imparts upon people: some love them, some despise them. Me, I definitely like photographing the locks. 🙂 Thanks again for stopping by!
