I was limited by the plywood fence around the site.  This picture was taken 
through the open gate.  I went in as far as I dared.  There was actually 
four cranes working on it.  To of the smaller ones like shown and a huge 
crane lifting the superstructure.  I am hoping to get more in my colour shots.

I think the sky is what makes the picture.  That is why I tried to get more 
of it.  I was in the ditch at the side of the highway.  If you went up any 
higher, you lost the sky.
