A slightly distant aerial starboard bow view, taken from wide off the bow, of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company ore/bulk/oil carrier Grafton (1967) under way entering a Japanese iron ore port. All eleven of her hatches are open ready for loading and she has the Trident Tankers Ltd logo on her funnel. Her port anchor is suspended below its hawse and two local tugs are close to her port side. The port's breakwater is in the background and a number of merchant ships are at anchor beyond the breakwater. The horizon is not quite level. The photographer is in a low-flying aeroplane and transparencies numbers P62888CT and P62892CT to P62897CT inclusive were taken on the same occasion.
