Hello,
I want to share some images taken of an accommodation vessel..
The Safe Boreas is the most advanced and efficient harsh environment accommodation vessel in the world, constructed to comply with Norwegian regulations.
The vessel has the capacity to accommodate 450 persons in single man cabins.
The layout of the unit is unique, with two large internal atriums allowing natural daylight into cabins, mess room and recreational areas.
The vessel is named after Boreas, the Greek god of the north wind and the bringer of cold winter air.
The name reflects that the vessel is designed for operating in the Norwegian and UK North Sea, a geographical area renown for its cold climate and harsh winters.
Hello how are you?
Have you had a good festive period.
Thats it all over and back to normal for me now.
Q. What is the difference with the above images?
A. About half an hour..
It is amazing how waiting can have such a difference to your images.
In half an hour the sky semi cleared, even look at the sea, waves calmed down and the setting sun caught the clouds nicely.
So please take your time, slow down, bag the image and then wait till the suns gone as you never know how mother nature will react…
Have a great weekend.

Hello,
Today i would like to share three images, all taken within a few minutes on one another,
I thought it gives a good visual on the setting sun and blue hour.
Sometimes there isn’t a spectacular sun set.
With these industrial beauties, blue hour is my favourite as the contrast against the warm flood lights look amazing.
I hope that you have a good weekend,

Here, are two images 25 years apart.
The images are of the "pig launchers", on the cellar deck of the BP Miller platform,
one while the platform was being commissioned, and put together,
and the second, while decommissioning.
Thanks
