Surfing the cold, rocky coast of the Kuril Islands

A high-angle, medium shot shows several surfers scattered in the choppy, gray ocean. In the foreground, a white wave breaks and recedes. In the middle ground, individual surfers are visible as dark shapes on their surfboards, some paddling and others waiting for waves. In the background, a rugged, green-topped cliff face rises from the water, with a hazy, mountainous landscape behind it. The sky is overcast.

A scenic view of a coastal landscape. In the foreground, tall green grass sways gently. The middle ground features a dark, rocky beach with waves crashing onto the shore. The ocean stretches out towards the horizon, with gentle waves. In the far distance, a large, cone-shaped mountain rises from the sea, silhouetted against a pale blue sky with wispy clouds. The overall atmosphere is serene and natural.
