The image depicts a waterfront scene in the city of Anapa, Russia, during either sunrise or sunset, with the sun positioned low on the horizon to the left, creating a strong glare. The sky above transitions from a bright golden-orange at the horizon to a pale blue. In the foreground, a sandy or pebbly beach runs diagonally from the lower left to the mid-right, displaying small, gentle waves. A dark, elongated piece of driftwood is visible on the wet sand in the lower-left quadrant. Two human figures are present on the far-left section of the beach, appearing as dark silhouettes standing near the water's edge. The mid-ground is dominated by the calm, rippling surface of the water, which reflects the golden light from the sky. A cluster of approximately 20-30 dark-feathered birds, likely waterfowl, are present on the water. The background features an urban coastline. A series of low-rise buildings, some with light facades and others darker, line the shore. Behind these, sparse deciduous trees appear bare, suggesting a season without leaves. To the right, two prominent high-rise buildings are visible: a modern structure with a light, possibly glass-fronted facade, and a taller, darker building. A low-lying pier or jetty, equipped with railings, extends into the water from the right side of the shoreline.
