The image shows a large black ship, named "Cadillac", sailing on the water. The ship appears to be a passenger liner, as indicated by the name on the side of the ship. It has a large smokestack on the left side and a smaller one on the right side. There are several antennas and other equipment on the deck, including a flagpole with the American flag flying at half mast. The sky is overcast and the water is calm, suggesting that the photo was taken during the day.
