Photograph showing the ocean and a ship at some distance. The ocean has small waves disturbing the surface. The ship's upper deck is nearly flat, and the ship is quite long compared to the deck's height above the ocean surface. There is a superstructure above the deck that is located somewhat forward of the middle. There is a wake of water at the ship's bow.
