You certainly caught the right moment for the light on this one Ken. Great shot. Lots of PCC's sitting around idle at the moment so good to see one.

Many thanks John, we have to put up with these dark clouds these days, don't know where they come from, as you say this was an exceptional background so I had to take advantage of it.
I know there are a lot laid up but so far a few are still coming up the river.

Regards
Ken
