Liftboat Legs

Galveston Ship Yard, Pelican Island Texas

A mix of liftboats and jack up rigs.
A liftboat is a self-propelled, self-elevating vessel with a relatively large open deck capable of carrying equipment and supplies in support of various offshore mineral
exploration and production or offshore construction activities. A liftboat also has the capability of rapidly raising its hull clear of the water on its own LEGS,
so as to provide a stable platform from which drilling, maintenance or construction work may be conducted.

Interesting industrial shot. The bird adds a nice bit of nature to the scene.

The technology we have today is outstanding, you captured it so well in this stunning grayscale image. The bird and the beautiful cumulous clouds as so much to this photo. V

Fascinating! I've never seen equipment like this in person, and what a lineup you've captured here. V.

Those are cool, and very nicely captured. I thought they were actual oil drilling platforms until I read your explanatory notes. ~BV~
