01

A new habit of young couples in the parks:
Instead of writing their names into trees,
they have started to leave these things at the iron fences of bridges.


For others taking part in the challenge, have a look here:

What an interesting custom and much better than drawing hearts on trees and walls!

What a great idea. Love it.

Those are interesting love-tokens!! In NZ ladies began to tie their Bras to a farmer's fence. The locals didn't like it at all. Check this out:

what a great find, and a wonderful idea of the couples, you can remove the lock once the relation is finished

This is something I haven't seen before.. makes a wonderful photo, especially with the heart on the lock.. great shot..

Werner, this is super and the shot is excellent! V.
PS. I heard some bureaucrats don´t want them, because they would damage (through wind, making them pounder against the bridge) the rust protection on bridges, causing high-maintenance!!

Have not seen this before. This is well shot!

I've seen this done in Paris. This is an ideal image Werner! Love the heart locket! :)
Welcome back!

Yes, I love it!

Enchanting new habit for the young and in love. Bit I wonder why those two red locks are so far apart ---- don't tell me they're on the verge of breaking up :-)

I've never heard of this trend, but did find one lock on a fence one time that I thought how odd. I wonder if in our park they would just cut them off and throw away before the realized what was happening! I think that fence is neat and will be better in time :)

A nice habit !! I Love the red lock with the heart and that big sparkle on the left!!
