Flak bursts over the sea and a distant ship

Scattered black puffs of exploding shells fill the upper part of a pale sky, some drifting into smudges; lower down, white cumulus clouds line the horizon, and on the dark sea a ship and small plumes of water can be seen. The bursts mark where the gunners of the task force placed their fire in the path of approaching aircraft.
