View from the cockpit of a narrow boat barge in an emptying lock. The canal is at a 'T' junction with the river Calder. The barge plays to the perspective of converging lines. Vanishing point is near the upper third centre of the image with river banks at two thirds. The boat is in an emptying lock. Autumnal trees line the river in colours of yellows reds and purple. Sailors in life jackets are preparing the lock. This is the slow life.
