    A Coast Guard helicopter hoist rescue operation is underway above a large cargo/container ship in foggy, low-visibility conditions. Two rescue personnel in orange survival suits and helmets are visible, with one being hoisted via a cable hook above the ship's deck. The operation appears to be taking place at significant height above the vessel's superstructure.

    Four individuals in orange immersion/survival suits are posed in front of a red and black helicopter on a tarmac or helipad during sunset or sunrise. Three are standing while one is kneeling in the foreground. The orange suits and helicopter markings suggest this is a Coast Guard or offshore search-and-rescue crew.
