Kwangtung Voyage #17
Wednesday 25th May 1994: Unloading at Réunion Island
In 1994, I spent three months working on a container ship sailing between Europe and ports in the Indian Ocean. I recently discovered my slide photos from the trip, and have scanned some of them into my computer.
This shot is looking out of the hold that I had spent a few days cleaning at the start of the trip. The containers are secured by quick-release locks, and then lashed together to make sure they stay in place even during the worst forseeable weather (this isn't always enough - from time to time you read in the news of a ship spilling some of its load in rough seas). The container sizes are all the same, allowing them to be stacked neatly and quickly on top of each other.
Shipping is also one of the most dangerous careers on offer. Seamen have been squashed under falling containers, trapped in closing hatch covers, fallen overboard in rough seas, drowned in sinking ships or held at gunpoint by modern-day pirates. Even arriving at a port can be risky: when the ropes are thrown ashore to tie the ship up, they can carry vast loads, and have been known to snap. If you're standing in the line of fire, the energy released can be enough to decapitate you.
That said, the construction industry - where I work now - is probably even more dangerous.

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells. --To Autumn. by John Keats
To get to Basoko it was two days down river in a pirogue with an outboard motor. A second pirogue was strapped to the side to carry the teams motorcycles. Most of the roads are so overgrown and damaged that even four wheel drive jeeps cannot get through.

The Mercedes 500K is a sports car built by Mercedes-Benz between 1934 and 1936, and first exhibited at the 1934 Berlin Motor Show.[1] It carried the factory designation W29.[2] Distinguished from the 500 sedan by the "K" in its name which denoted the kompressor (supercharger) only fitted to the sports cars, it succeeded the Mercedes-Benz 380 which had been introduced only the previous year, using a larger, more powerful engine and more opulent coachwork to meet customers' demands for greater luxury and performance.[3][4]
The 500K used the same independent suspension setup as had been introduced on the 380, with a double wishbone front axle, double-joint swing axle at the rear, and separate wheel location, coil springs and damping, a world first.[1][3] Consequently it was a more comfortable and better handling car than Mercedes' previous S/SS/SSK generation of roadsters from the 1920s, and offered greater appeal to buyers, particularly the growing number of well-heeled female drivers of the time.[1]
Pressing the throttle pedal fully engaged the Roots supercharger,[1] inducing the five litre straight eight engine to produce up to 160 horsepower (120 kW) and making the car capable of over 160 kilometres per hour (100 mph), while consuming fuel at the rate of up to 30 l/100 km (9.4 mpg-imp; 7.8 mpg-US) as it did so.[1][4]
Three different chassis and eight bodies were available for customers;[1][4] the two longer "B" and "C" four seat cabriolet versions rode on a wheelbase of 3,290 mm (129.5 in), and would later be used on other sedan and touring car models.[1] The short "A" chassis, with a 2,980 mm (117.3 in) wheelbase, underpinned the two-seater models: the Motorway Courier, and the 1936 Special Roadster which offered the highest performance.[1][5] All models featured such advanced equipment as safety glass, hydraulic brakes, and a 12-volt electrical system sufficient to bear the load of the electric windscreen wipers, door locks, and indicators.[4]
Production
The combined production of the 500K (342 cars) including 29 Special Roadsters during its two years in production, and the later 540K (419 cars) from Sindelfingen, the deliveries were:[1]
70 chassis without body
28 open cars
23 sedans with 4 doors (mainly 500K)
29 sedans with 2 doors (mainly 540K)
12 Coupés
6 Autobahn cruisers
