Southern Lord

11 December 1998, South Atlantic off Terra Del Fuego.
Whilst along side the jacket (Hidra Central Platform) as the tide went down, a large seal was sort of wallowing around among the legs. It seems to have made the platform legs it’s home and as the tide went down exposing one of the cross beams it got it’s self up on one and let the tide fall away underneath it, staying there sleeping until the tide came back in, with the occasional stretch and yawn. Watching this I wrote a few words about it.
