Description
Photograph of panoramic view of at least fifteen ships moving as a single row along the ocean water, 1908. From far right to the left of the image, a squadron of ships is seen moving along the calm ocean water. Each ship in the fleet appears near identical. All ships show lightly-colored sides and hulls above the water level. Also, a set of three smokestacks can be seen at the center of each ship. Additionally, two large mast posts are visible on either side of the smoke stacks. Other platforms and items can be seen on the deck of the ship, but they are too far to be seen in detail. In the far background, the smoke from ships leaves a dark trail in the sky.
