caption_attribution_description: One of the cannons in front of the Ministry of Defence, Bangkok, Thailand. Photo taken before the re-alignment of the canons in 2004, so it points toward Wat Phra Kaew, not to the south like it does now. The canon depicted may be Phraya Tani (พญาตานี), or the cannon cast to be a replica of it. (can anyone identify it). Photo taken by User:Ahoerstemeier in 2003.
