The image portrays a coastal beach scene in Mopo Onijebu, Nigeria, under bright, hazy daylight conditions. A single young male, appearing to be a child or adolescent, is the primary subject, silhouetted in the foreground and captured mid-stride, moving from left to right along the sandy shoreline. He is barefoot and wears dark, patterned swimming trunks, with his head turned to face the ocean. The sun, a distinct star-like burst of light, is positioned in the upper center-right of the pale grey sky, backlighting the scene. The mid-ground features the ocean with moderate waves breaking into white foam along the shore. Two additional, indistinct human figures are visible in the far right background, standing near the water's edge. The foreground consists of wet and dry sand, exhibiting footprints and a segment of dark, braided rope or similar debris resting on the sand to the right of the main figure.
