A male subject is positioned in the foreground, facing the camera and taking a selfie with a black smartphone held horizontally in his extended right hand. His left hand is raised, forming a "V" sign. He wears a white hooded jacket featuring a red and white emblem on the left chest, black athletic pants, and white athletic shoes. The scene is set at the Monument to 1300 Years of Bulgaria in Shumen, Bulgaria. Behind the subject, a wide, multi-tiered concrete staircase ascends, flanked by imposing, unadorned concrete retaining walls. To the right and above the stairs, angular, brutalist concrete structures of the monument are visible, culminating in a large, sculpted stone face on the upper left section of the monument. Sparse, dormant vegetation, consisting of bare trees and thorny shrubs, lines the upper perimeter of the concrete structures and walls. The ground in the immediate foreground is paved with irregularly shaped grey cobblestones. The sky is overcast with a mix of grey and lighter cloud formations.
