This image captures an elevated view of a coastal urban landscape in Fortaleza, Brazil, specifically from the area of the Dunas da Sabiaguaba or near Praia do Futuro, looking towards the city center. In the foreground, the lower third of the image is dominated by a large sand dune with light beige sand. The bottom edge displays distinct, parallel ripples indicative of wind patterns. Further up the dune, the sand appears smoother, with scattered human footprints. Mid-ground, a multi-lane asphalt road traverses horizontally, separating the sand dune from a forested area. The road consists of at least four lanes, likely two in each direction, divided by a narrow median strip with sparse vegetation. Four vehicles are present on the road: a dark-colored sedan on the far left lane, a white hatchback or small SUV on the adjacent inner lane, a second white hatchback or small SUV slightly ahead on the parallel inner lane, and a white SUV positioned further right on the outer lane. Two tall, dark streetlights with fixtures and utility poles with overhead wires are visible along the road's median and shoulder. In the background, a vast expanse of dense, dark green foliage, consistent with the Sabiaguaba Ecological Park, forms a prominent natural barrier. Beyond this forest, a hazy, distant silhouette of high-rise buildings defines a city skyline, signifying a dense urban area. The sky, occupying the top portion of the image, displays pale yellow and light blue hues near the horizon, gradually transitioning to a lighter grey-blue overhead, suggesting either early morning or late afternoon light conditions. No people are discernible in the scene.
