Sunny Greenock Waterfront

A nice sunny day with temperature at 12 degrees for a short time.

Puts me in the notion for summer.

A few pics on my travels.

'Night is Day' - Movie Presentation at CCA in Glasgow

Comic Camp was staged in the CCA (Centre for Contemporary Arts) at Glasgow today.

 A two-part event exploring comics, animation, gaming, and film.

The morning session focused on emerging innovation, giving the floor to those working within these fields to present current projects or exciting new aspects of their work. This is where 'Night is Day' was promoted and a Q & A session for the audience was held.

A good attendance by the producers and crew gave the presenters (Fraser and Gavin) some moral support - though this was hardly needed as they gave excellent responses.

Forth Guardsman - River Clyde

A rare - if not unique visitor to the Clyde.

She appears to be carrying out work at King George V dock in Glasgow.

 Quite unusual in appearance, and made her way very slowly upriver this afternoon.

Around the James Watt Dock - Greenock

Oh to live in Inverclyde, weather changes quickly keeping it interesting, and keeps you on your toes.

In between showers (not to many mind you) managed a few images of ships in the James Watt Dock.

It's a busy time of year as a lot of vessels are getting their winter refits.

Chuetsu Maru - Cargo Ship

Chuetsu Maru arrived on the Clyde today with a cargo of animal feed. She made her way to KGV docks in Glasgow, and was assisted by three tugs - Ayton Cross, Anglegarth, and Svitzer Milford.

She is a large vessel and in the confines of the Clyde looked pretty awesome.
