Tuesday 7th March 2023. The Falkirk Wheel. Lit after sunset. The rotating boat lift that connects the Union Canal with the Forth & Clyde. The world's only rotating boat lift, The Falkirk Wheel links the Forth & Clyde Canal to the Union Canal 35 metres above.
The weather forecast was for little wind. I got there for 5pm . Sunset was 6.01pm.
I took a number of photographs at the foot of the wheel. At times the reflections of The Falkirk Wheel in the canal basin was just perfect. Then little ripples would appear for a minute or so.
I stayed on for the blue hour and the lights coming on the Wheel. That was stunning.
I then walked up to the top of The Falkirk Wheel and took images of the arches lit during the blue hour after sunset
Here are 12 images of top of the lit Falkirk Wheel during blue hour after sunset.
