I was commissioned by Clydebank Re-Built to take some nights shots of the last crane on site of the world renowned John Brown Engineering of Clydebank.
John Brown were known as the "Rolls Royce" of shipbuilding and were responsible for building many of the worlds greatest ever ships, the QE2 being the last one.
The Titan Crane is now a visitor attraction which allows you to travel up to the top and
what a view you get.
Who would ever have thought that a massive crane who's main purpose was lifting massive engines into ships would end up as an iconic piece of architecture.
It is well worth a visit.

Hi Stewart,
Superb photography as always.
I have never seen the 150ft Clydebank Blitz survivor - The Titan Crane look as good since it first opened as a unusual tourist attraction in July 2007.
However, I would like to see a follow up set of images showing some of the spectacular views from the top.
Cheers,
Brian
I agree, in both senses. You know when you log on here the photos are going to be sublime, and yes I too would like to see photos taken from the top of that crane. Catherine
