Keystone 20894, blasting in the Culebra Cut, Panama Canal Zone
A pseudostereo animated gif version is shown below (scroll down).
Stereoview (original orientation in parallel)
The 3D effect is almost insignificant in long shots, and the obsolete stem powered machinery in the foreground is too far away to benefit.

Libraryimages.net has a nice stereoview of work in the area two years earlier, a steam shovel in action, and a labor crew hauling dirt.
VFM4 shows a postcard from the completed ditch, before it was flooded eight years later.
Andy961 has a nice shipboard shot of the area 90 years later.
Cvestal shot the scene from the shore as a ship passed (also 9 decades later).
