Is there anything more impressive than these exhausts, is there any reason they are shaped like that, maybe, but I like to think it's aesthetics, it's so some weirdo like me will marvel and think is photo worthy.
The beauty of the industry always gets me - what follows is a series of photographs of the tug boats of Darwin harbour, in the North of Australia. I believe all of these boats are owned by Svitzer The one above is likely called 'Svitzer Palmerston'
This slightly less glamourous one is the Edwina,
there is something to be said for how the corrosion has attacked it, something powerful about the simple warning of a propeller
but I must return to the angles of these exhausts glinting in the warm afternoon sun
