Lovely morning...and a big crane.

The jib of a 500tonne capacity Liebherr crane. This is actually the very same crane pictured at rest, which I posted recently.

It was lifting bridge beams into place near Manchester. Sarens are a Belgian company but this crane is based in Middlesborough.

My uncle had heavy recovery trucks when i was a kid so I've always loved stuff like this. There were a lot of people taking photos of it.
