Shot yesterday morning about 9ish, managed to get this close and maybe a bit closer.
some of the salvage team doing there work.

love this one Jason very low angle makes the boat dominate the skyline...

Nice sky colour DOF a little short of the mark but still a very good pic..

This is the best out of the three that you have just uploaded. Having nice foreground and sky, plus keeping the forklift in on the left of the image.

I have watched this unfolding real life series with much interest ... the Death of a Ship ... the end of a way of Life for the Crew ... what will become of Her. Your lot of Images are well on a par to what has been seen via the News Media and Press, here Down Under.

Really pleased that you like the shot Nik, cheers for the visit.

Hi Jadon,
I really like the sky and horizon in this one, is it a tad wonky?
This series really shows the size of the thing, must be awesome in person.
When they finally sort this lot out, what are you going to do with yourself? They must be missing you at work lol.

Really great shot. Love your angle and perspective which emphasises the size of the ship. Colours in sky are lovely.

Hi Barry, pleased that you like this one the most out of the 3, thanks for the comments and visit pal.

Hi Brian, thanks for those great comments, very nice compliments, I think they are going to scrap her, the insurance has probably already been paid out on it, so it's up to the salvage crew, as far as I know when they right her, she will be towed away and broken up I think...
Glad you like the shot.

amazing to think the trucks are still in situ.. good shot Jason..colours are really good, very smooth love the foreground, very crisp and sharp

Hi there Merv, Well I could say that there is a sand bank in the foreground but that doesn't stop the horizon from looking wonky, I would have corrected it were it not for the forklift on the left of the shot, I didn't want that cropped out...
This is a reasonable sized ship and is quite incredible to see on the beach at Cleveleys, something different for folks to see around here.
I've been called a sad t**t for going down to take loads of shots but again everyone likes my shots of the boat, got 2 printed in the Blackpool gazette, so am pleased with that, got nought for it though.
I'm sure I'll find something else to occupy my time when this ship has gone.
