    A heavily corroded and encrusted historical cannon is being lifted by a crane against a bright blue sky with scattered clouds. The object appears to have been recovered from an underwater or buried context, evidenced by significant marine or soil encrustation covering its surface. The cannon displays classic features including a cascabel (knob) at the breech end and a tapered barrel.

    A large clamshell or orange-peel dredging grab bucket is suspended from a crane on what appears to be a work barge on a waterway. The deck is covered with dark, wet dredged sediment or mud that has been deposited from recent grabs. Multiple workers and support equipment are visible on the barge deck in the background.
