A black, shaggy-coated dog lies prone in the foreground on a sandy beach in Herzliya, Israel. Its muzzle, chin, and lower jaw are heavily caked with light tan sand. Its mouth is open, revealing a pink tongue. A blue leash with a silver clip is attached to a collar visible on its neck, extending towards the lower left. In the mid-ground, three blurred human figures are visible near the water's edge. One figure on the left is in a wide stance, while two others are closer together on the right, engaged in unspecified activities. The Mediterranean Sea is visible in the background with small waves. The sky above transitions from light blue to a warm orange-pink hue near the horizon, indicating sunset or sunrise.
