New Cranes Come to Port of Oakland

The beginning of the year brought 3 new massive container cranes to the Port of Oakland, able accommodate the largest container ships this planet has to offer. Maybe even the Ever Was, if it’s ever released from the Suez Canal.

Cranes are still on the ship, though a good bit of activity on the deck yesterday. pic.twitter.com/9xq7kwJzhi

Aerial Tour of the Port of Oakland

Take a 3 minute tour of the Port of Oakland, the fifth busiest container shipping terminal in the US. Things to see: Big cranes! Big ships! Lots of containers! Be sure to click the gear icon to watch in full 4K glory.

I shot this while on a walking tour of the Port in support of the The Container Guide by Tim Hwang and Craig Cannon. Flying camera used was a DJI Phantom 3 Professional.

Of course, any self-respecting walking tour with a drone requires a dronie.
