10 stop (300 secs) long exposure. Marine Operations Centre, Aberdeen Harbour, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

The tide was too high for a composition to reduce foreground clutter (Unless I had stood chest deep in the water!).

Aberdeen Harbour, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. First established as a business in 1136 by King David 1st of Scotland, Aberdeen Harbour is, according to the Guinness Book of Business Records, the oldest existing business in Britain, with a history that has spanned almost 900 years. Aberdeen Harbour is one of the UK’s busiest ports. A world leading marine support centre, it is the principal port for the energy sector in Western Europe and serves a number of industries as the main commercial port in the North-East of Scotland. With trading links to more than 40 countries worldwide, Aberdeen Harbour generates in excess of £1.5billion GVA annually. As a Trust Port, it invests all profits into further development, amounting to more than £35million in the last five years. www.britishports.org.uk/our-members/aberdeen-harbour-board
Marine Operations Centre. This building is intended to be an iconic landmark, and has been designed around the style of a traditional lighthouse. It is situated at the inward end of the North Pier to allow the Vessel Traffic Services staff visibility over all three arms of the harbour, as well as the entrance. Built at a cost of £4.5 million, it entered service in 2006, succeeding the 'Roundhouse'. canmore.org.uk/site/282569/aberdeen-harbour-north-pier-ma...
