The image is a close-up shot emphasizing the careful inspection of the liquid sample.
    The image shows two large gray naval vessels sailing in close formation on open blue ocean under a partly cloudy sky. The larger vessel on the right appears to be an amphibious assault ship with a flat flight deck loaded with military helicopters and aircraft.
