    Hi
    I'm in Dublin next weekend. is there anywhere with many cargo containers they I could wander around and photograph? Like down the ducks or somewhere?
    Anytune I see shipping areas in films I think it'd be a great place to photograph- square angles, repetition, colors etc
    Thanks in advance
    Pa

    Lots of them at the port in East Wall. On & off ships.

    I'd suggest that you get a LUAS to the Point, walk across the East Link bridge and continue east - you will see as many containers as you will ever want that way!!

    Honestly Charlie is best man to ask, ring Dublin port center switch board and tell him your story

    i work in a container agency myself, should be no problem at all, we've had our containers shot in love hate scences in the docks before.

    the one thing i will say, just ask whatever line you are going to be using / taking pictures of for clearance, some of them can be a bit antsy if your going to publish / put online pictures of their containers.
