Nice shot. Besides the subject, I like the composition. What a long way we seem to have come from the "tramp" steamers!

Did you shoot from the shore, or another vessel?

I shot from the shore with a CV 35/1.4 on the M240, the only lens I had with me, so this is a fairly substantial crop.
I was standing on the foreshore by Landguard Fort which is a very interesting defensive fort dating back to Napoleonic times.
We counted a few thousand containers on board.

Mind-boggling. :shock: Those vessels never looked seaworthy to me, but apparently they get the job done.

Nice composition!

Container ships truly boggle the mind. You'd think they'd tip over or just drop containers all along the route (more than they already do).
