The Falkirk Wheel

This is the Union canal just as it reaches the Falkirk Wheel to meet the Forth & Clyde Canal. The waterway looks so natural ...... but you can see the metalwork at the top of the wheel in the distance. Try going large.

It is an amazing piece of engineering - this link gives good information as well as some pictures and video of the wheel in action.
