Photograph of a panoramic view of a grass-lined irrigation canal in the Imperial Valley, [s.d.]. The long canal runs from the foreground to the background at center and is very straight. The water in the ditch is very calm, and its surface reflects the image of its surroundings. Tall grasses can be seen lining the ditch on both sides. In the foreground, the shadow of a bridge can be seen on the water.
