Locks of love

I've noticed these locks on bridges in many places in Europe and in the beginning they baffled me, I must admit. Apparently couples put them up and throw away the key to symbolize eternal love. Now the locks have come to Copenhagen, though not as mainstream as in i.e. Eastern Europe. These few locks have been placed on the bridge across Nyhavn, but who knows, it might catch on here in the next few years. We have enough bridges to last a few lifetimes.

Locks of love

The tradition where couples place locks on a bridge as a symbol of their undying love has also hit Copenhagen, though it's not as massive as I've seen in Vilnius, Budapest and Frankfurt. These locks are placed on the bridge crossing Nyhavn.

Going Retro I

With cameras in nearly every mobile today and apps to do fun things with the photos, it's now possibly to make believe that your photo was in reality from another time entirely. This one of the lock in Copenhagen's South Harbour area was taken on an iPhone using the Hipstamatic app.
