Oil Rig




In 2006 I photographed the Glomar Grand Banks, a drilling rig that was anchored in Conception Bay.

We photographed the rig as the sun set behind it. The skipper of the boat approached from one direction (we didn't go around it) so you can probably imagine how lucky I felt when I saw the sun descending immediately behind the rig.

The opportunity to photograph this particular rig in a beautiful sunset presented itself and I took over 500 photos to make sure I got a few "good" ones. Maybe I'll share a few more from that trip at another time.
