Dreich Afternoon at the Garvel Dry Dock


Arrived at the Garvel dry dock in the rain and not looking too promising.

March has not started well weather wise.

Then a break in the heavy showers and down I go to get some quick shots before they return.

Suitable attired with work boots, hi-vis vest, and hard hat I'm as safe as I can be on the floor of the dock.

The showers don't stay away long and it's a haul back on to the top of the dock and some shelter aboard the MV Saturn.

Hung around a bit but it was becoming obvious I wasn't going to get it dry again, and the light was fading with the low cloud.

Headed home and time to process the images - hope you enjoy them.
