Statistics
From the shore, container ports can look like rows of cranes. An elevated view reveals the rest of the operation, from lanes between stacks to berths and inland links. These photographs show major gateways around the world, from Shanghai’s deep-water terminals to the quays of Mombasa and Melbourne. The captions identify each port or terminal and point out details visible in the frame.
