Skywatch Friday: cranes at the shore

This photo was taken at Jack London Square.  I never tire of looking at these behemoth cranes.  So Star Wars.  You can see that the weather has turned warm again and it was positively balmy by the estuary.  Visit Skywatch Friday for more heavenly views.

    That thing looks like it has it's own personality and is ready to pounce on whatever crosses its path.

    Great capture! It also looks like a giant mechanical horse! I love the soft and misty bluish skies.

    It looks very dangerous and hungry. I like the shot. Have a great weekend!

    Yes, a cool shot. I appreciate industrial landscapes more and more, not only for their æsthetic interest but also for the ingenuity that lies behind their development.

    Good one. I think I might have looked elsewhere. You have a good eye to see the image there.

    Very cool. Looks like a modern day Trojan horse! I"m sending Wayne over.

    Never mind Skywatch. Look at those cool cranes. :-)

    I never get tired of looking at ours either.

    It's amazing to watch these in action. I got to play with a simulator once and had a blast. Great capture!

    I don't know why, but there is something about harbour cranes that I always love
