ARCHIVE: Maltese Dock Crane - 08
 
As from looking at my previous report (The 3 towers) you may have seen the docklands were only a stone's throw.
Again visited with SoLo1

So here's a close up of 1 of the dock cranes and its identical TWIN.
Looking over the waters during the day planning an entry/exit route i managed to take this pic.

After only concentrating on getting up there it didnt cross my mind to stop and take a pic looking up. Not to mention the pack of guard dogs patroling the yard.So heres one looking down.:confused:

Looking over to the twin sister. Here you can see the spiral staircase all the way up, that was exhausting.
