Nice! Like how you got the crane in motion backing up, have to be in the right place at the right time to catch these photos.

Hey Vinny, Keep an eye out next week for some interesting pics. Hint: 9/11 Memorial artifacts, I'm running the rigging gang there for the next two weeks and again in August..Starts Monday.. Google Hangar 17 JFK airport for an idea of some of the pieces..Great shots of the 18000, we also are working at the transportation hub. We are gonna be removing part of the wall in pieces, 40,000lbs a pick and about 140 picks at night very soon...
