Nautical Dawn in New Orleans Canal Lock Gate Closing on Still Green Water

by Glenn Shields

A heavy iron lock gate begins to close across a narrow canal in New Orleans, the steel plates reflecting the dim, gray light of nautical dawn. The water inside the locked section is still and green, mirroring the wrought-iron balconies and brick facades of the surrounding French Quarter buildings. Steam rises slightly from the cooling machinery as the gate seals off the tide. A small wooden skiff bobs gently against the bollards nearby, its mooring line taut.
