Wow, this is gorgeus! you need to understand my idea of gorgeus is a variety of colors that flow together harmoneously though. if you get that, you understand what I mean. Good work!

Living in Riga, Latvia its common to see locks on bridges like this. The tradition is newlyweds engrave their names on the lock, secure it to the bridge and throw the keys into the water. I would guess its the same in this photo, not really an art installation.

Nice, there are TONS of these on the bridge to cologne as well.

@timandelke @csimmons @shantwin @geertje Thank you very much for your nice comments.
this locks are now everywhere now on the bridges in many cities it seems... Jeremy explained very well for me: "The tradition is newlyweds engrave their names on the lock, secure it to the bridge and throw the keys into the water. I would guess its the same in this photo, not really an art installation." There was a big "scandal" last summer because one night all the locks had deasapeared... there were tons of them, it might have take hours to do it but noone seemed to notice... strange story!

@parisouailleurs I think it's a charming custom and I hope no one ever takes the locks off!
December 2nd, 2010  
Fantastic!
December 2nd, 2010  
cool shot and interesting story about the locks disappearing. I hope it didn't lead to lots of broken hearts!
