View of the mountains of Zambales, silhouetted against a tropical sunset. Photo taken form aboard c.s. Cable Retriever in Subic Bay, Zambales, Philippines - January, 2006 Unfortunately, I never thought to keep the original high resolution image file of this photo, when I reduced it for uploading to one of the previous versions of ArtFreaks.com, so this particular image is not available in the Print Program on my portfolio at ArtWanted.com

A Norwegian chemical tanker, (Gem of something-or-other - I wasn't able to get the full name,) seen in the Yangtse river estuary, China - September, 2008

If you think you are having a bad day, take a look at this. It is one of those real "Oh Shit!" moments in history! A bit of a disaster, this one... The blue things were a couple of heavy-lift gantry cranes at a shipyard on the Huang-Pu river, near Shanghai, China。 They have both toppled down onto a large container ship under construction in a dry-dock - and knocked the ship off its blocks and right across to the side of the dock. This photo was taken about 5 or 6 weeks after the incident and dismantling of one of the heavy lift gantry cranes is already underway. What they will do with the ship, I have no idea. (It may be possible to float it and get it back into the middle of the dock, after the wreckage of the gantry cranes has been removed? It could also be a complete write-off and they may even end-up having to break the ship up too, salvage what bits they can and start building a new one?) Whatever. This is one Chinese shipbuilding disaster that is going to cost a LOT of money!! Photo taken from on board c.s. Wave Venture, on passage down the Huang-Pu between Shanghai and Wusong - September, 2008 The container ship in the dry-dock is the Xin Fei Zhou

A beautiful tropical sunset over the mountains of Zambales province in the Island of Luzon, Philippines I really love these kind of dramatic skies and the weird lighting that you get at dusk after a heavy downpour in the tropics Photo taken from on board the Global Marine Systems Ltd. cable ship, c.s. Cable Retriever, berthed at the SRF compound, Rivera Point, Subic Bay Freeport, Philippines - May, 2008

I'm not keen on skewed horizons and the tilt on the horizon in this certainly was not intentional. Anyway, I quite liked the picture, so I decided to post it anyway... Taken from aboard c.s. Cable Retriever, on passage to Batangas after repairing a submaine telecoms cable deep under the sea, somewhere near Taiwan. The mountains in the background are inshore from the coast of Zambales, Northern Luzon. At the time this photograph was taken, (April, 2008) the ship was somewhere in the vicinity of Cabangan and San Felipe, South of Iba in the province of Zambales. Somewhere amongst those lofty peaks are Mount Quimalogong and Mount Pundillo Ni Lima

I took this snap just before the moon was setting.

I keep a collection of interesting cloud photographs on my lap-top. Some of them may come in usefull one day as reference material for a painting... Photo taken from aboard c.s. Cable Retriever whilst on passage near the Philippines, in the South China Sea - some time in 2005
