Detail of work at Image Sand comes from the heap to the left, via an excavator; gravel is removed on the grader, into a lorry at front left, to be taken away; sand goes to the right, eventually to be pumped out via pipeline to the barge in the background, where it will be filled into large bags and lowered onto the first layer of bags, already in place. http://www.maritimejournal.com/archive101/2008/december/port_harbour__and__marine_construction/surfs_up_at_boscombes_artificial_reef
