This picture was taken off Welland Canals Parkway at Lock # 3 in St Catharines, Ontario, Canada. This Lock is a part of the Welland Canal which connect Port Weller, Ontario, on Lake Ontario to Port Colborne, Ontario, on Lake Erie a distance of 26 miles. The ship, entering a full canal lock, shown in the photo is a Chemical Tanker named North Contender, that was built in 2005 with a flag of Panama. The tanker measures 146 meters length and 25 meters breadth. The time it took to get through just this one lock was approximately 45 minutes. This was quite a site to see folks!
