Heh ... this is a good one! The Lumix certainly does its work well in good light. This is a good shot, sharp, well metered, good natural colours, well composed, and almost perfect (the slightly-cropped 'bumper' at the bow of the tug.)
Nice work

Hi Murray

Wonderful colour & sharpness on the tug. Maybe you should take a shot of the great wall of Sydney for the Apec meeting, this week? Good work & tfs!

Hello Murray.
Splendid an superb sharp picture of that colourful Tug boat.
Very well captured it is.
ps. Thanks for you wikipedia picture of 'MY' Beryl Alpha Platform.
Its not any more, as when I left it in 1978, the sub platform was not there, and I see they dismantled area 15 (right corner)
Where we did one of our last jobs, before we had to give over the maintenance to a british company.
Huge Pumps there, were hard to dismantle (they thought) and send to shore if in failure.
So they ask us to cutt open the (Fireprooved) steel roof to the upperdeck, and remake that with moveble heaches.
We complained, that was not needed, as the whole pumps could be taken out, by tackles and so on, through the wide door of the area, to the lower deck and by the 'North crane, to upperdeck and to the schip.
To proof that, we did it that way, and after, we cutted the roof and made the heaches. So that the 'new commers' had an easy job. (it was our answer to show our workmanship as we did for 3.5 years. Building it from notting to was it was that time)
(That company was working for half the price we costed that time). haha
Thanks again, I will see if there is more about it on wikipedia.
Cheers from Jan
