SpaceX ASDS in Port Canaveral at dock.

Took a short drive yesterday to Port Canaveral FL, from the Kennedy Space Center Visitor complex today to capture a few images of the famed SpaceX Automated Spaceport Drone Ship " Of Course I still Love You ", named from one of 2 ships in the Player of Games novel in the ("Culture Novel series") by Scottish Science Fiction Author Ian M Banks. 

The other ASPDS is the named after  another ship in the book "Just Read The Instructions". There have been photos showing up in twitter and imgur of the OCISLY with a hole punched through the deck plating, showing just how hard the Falcon 9 first stage hit the landing barge on the SES-9 landing attempt!. The photo used showing the damage was taken by a Reddit SpaceX page fan and contributor Craig VanderGalien with his personal drone. Here is a link to one of 2 imgur pages with his photos taken with his quad-copter drone. http://imgur.com/a/7WGd3 Still no word from SpaceX or official video's or photo's of that landing attempt. stay tuned for further updates...
