Not worthy of the photograhy section and really more of an OOoooooOo aren't huge things amazing! post anyway.

I was driving home and spotted this (not hard to miss), the Saipem 7000

It is the second largest crane vessel in the world. It's hard to get a sense of scale from the photo but trust me it's Huuuugggeee! (accommodation designed for 800 people contains 30 triple cabins, 335 double cabins, 35 singles and 5 suites and also contains a large galley and mess rooms, a hospital, cinema and lounges.) Seeing things like that just makes you think wow. Unfortunately the weather is just dreich today so it's not a great shot. However if the weather improves and it's still nearby I'll get another shot. I'm hoping there will be a nice clear evening sometime at the weekend and it'll still be about so I can get a few shots of it all lit up.
