Photograph of the Savannah-Ogeechee Canal near Savannah, Georgia, at sunset. A ship sails toward the suspension bridge that spans the water. Used to transport such bulky goods as bricks and rice upon its completion in 1829, the Savannah-Ogeechee Canal today is protected by preservation groups. - Metadata URL:
