Ships sailing in the harbour

Sea-going ships with their drawn hulls. Patches of rust the wear and tear of paint. Marked by their journeys across the world's seas from port to port. Loaded with cargo the merchant ships braving the salty waters of the ocean. This is what I photograph along canals and in ports.

Port photography is a fascinating form of photography that focuses on capturing the activity in ports. Port towns are often bustling centres of trade and industry, with ships, trucks and trains moving in and out to load and unload goods. This offers photographers the opportunity to capture beautiful images of large ships docked at the quayside, crane machines loading and unloading containers from and onto the ships, and workers busy at work. Port photography can be challenging, as there is often a lot of movement and activity, and the light is constantly changing. But when the right moments are captured, port photo's can produce impressive and inspiring images.
