Wonderful shot and tradition! We have old canals here with Towpaths!!

A lovely capture Mr P. and a great tradition with shire horses -I sometimes visit a canal with a towpath where they have a horse drawn pleasure boat for visitors to go along the canal !

@bruni It`s from the horse back to the mast rigging rope 1/3 of the deck Perhaps better seen on black

@ivan @lealady @girlie @wannabe Thanks for the fav.`s Much appreciated
@mikekutz @wannabe In those days it was hard work. My grandfather in law did own a small freight boat and if they could n`t afford a horse his wife did the job.

[Elyse Klemchuk]

This is lovely! How wonderful that they do this each year! The boat in the canal, the horses and the view with the sky and trees - I'd like to keep walking right along the path and enjoy the view!

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

Mooie foto, fav!

[Sandy]

Nice candid, but I wasn't able to get to your link with the explanation of the tradition.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I love the history behind it and am amazed at the strength of these horses!

[Darlene]

Such a wonderful shot. I love seeing what you posted last year as well and reading what others wrote as it explains this too. Sounds like such hard work years ago. This area has been kept up so well. It is nice to see that over the years. FAV

[Vesna]

Beautiful, I like the horses.

[Denise Wood]

Wonderful capture :)
