The Ballard Locks (a.k.a. the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks) are used to allow ships to travel between Lake Washington and Puget Sound. They are needed because the water level of the lake is higher than Puget Sound – about 26 feet higher at low tide. Maintenance work was being done on the smaller of the two locks so I took the opportunity to get some pictures.

I am new here..I will enjoy your photos!
Really cool photos. The last one with the dude in that opening of the closing gates, freaks me out. I want to yell at him “Hurry up! You are gonna get squashed, dude.” He is so tiny looking.
Great photos! Thanks!
What tremendous images, and how well they’re done with a little blog.
My little blog thanks you. 😉
really great shots….well done (like my comments matter, but the energy that goes with them does!)
Your comments do matter, thanks!
These pictures are really neat! I love the perspective! The worker looks so small next to the giant locks…
