The photographer is on the quayside looking aft showing pallets of cartons marked "Keep Dry Fragile" and "G.S.C. No. 12 Rotterdam Made in Japan" in the foreground. A fork lift truck is approaching with another pallet of these cartons. The quayside track-mounted crane No. K170 is in the foreground and cargo is being unloaded using the quayside cranes. Most of the ship is obscured by the cranes. A vertical format image.
