A small historic canal lock on the rural Canal de l'Est near Selles — strong subjects: weathered lock masonry, wooden gates, towpath, reflections and surrounding trees. Best at golden hour or foggy autumn mornings for soft light and mist; evenings for warm backlight. Easily reached by country road with limited roadside parking in the village; flat, walkable paths. No entry fee; respect private land and local anglers. Seasonal colours (autumn) and low water levels in late summer change textures.
