    Two U.S. Navy sailors wearing red life vests and 'USS Iwo Jima LHD 7' caps are working together on a pier, handling a large mooring line around a bollard. They are dressed in navy blue utility uniforms and appear to be securing or releasing a vessel at a waterfront dock. The setting is a naval or commercial pier with water visible on the left and a parking area with vehicles in the background.
    A large US Navy amphibious transport dock ship bearing hull number '17' is photographed at low angle near a pier during early morning or late evening light. The vessel displays characteristic features of a San Antonio-class LPD, including a flat flight deck, angular stealth-influenced superstructure, and an open stern gate/ramp. Personnel are visible on the upper deck, and another naval vessel is partially visible in the background at the pier.
    A large gray military naval vessel, consistent with an amphibious transport dock ship, is photographed at low angle near the waterline during sunrise or sunset. A smaller tugboat is visible alongside the warship, likely assisting with maneuvering in port. The dramatic backlighting from the sun creates strong silhouette contrast and reflections on the water surface.
    A large naval warship, consistent with a San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock, is photographed at sea during golden hour or early morning light. The vessel is accompanied by a smaller tugboat on its starboard side, with the sun creating strong lens flare and backlighting effects. A second, smaller vessel is visible in the distant background on the left horizon.

    A large gray naval warship, consistent with a US Navy amphibious transport dock (LPD-class), is underway in a harbor or bay during early morning or late afternoon light.
