I have tried to make a habit of changing the picture on the entry page into the site, but realise that people will probably bypass it - or will not quite get what I have chosen to feature this month, so here is an explanation. This is a view from the pilot house of a semi-submersible being towed towards Bressay Sound in the Shetland Islands by the Olympic Hercules and the Normand Triton. I had sent the Island Valiant to get the pilot because you need plenty of space to land the personnel transfer device. You can just see Lerwick in the distance. Photographed by Vic Gibson in 2007 and posted here on 22nd February 2010 We are still keen to receive contributions to Picture of the Day so if you fancy sending a picture - click HERE "Supply Ship Operations" Third Edition is
