The image depicts a section of the Great Wall of China in Yanqing District, China, at either sunrise or sunset. The sun, a bright circular orb with prominent lens flare, is low in the sky, casting long shadows across the scene and illuminating the foreground path with golden light. In the foreground, a paved pathway of stone bricks slopes downwards from left to right. A metal handrail, painted a light green or yellow, runs along the left edge of this path, attached to a brick wall. Two individuals are present on this path, largely silhouetted. On the left, a person wearing a light-colored top and dark pants walks downwards, holding a dark cane or stick. Behind them, a second person in dark clothing also walks downwards. A distinct green circular light anomaly is visible near the second person's left shoulder. Their elongated shadows stretch across the path towards the viewer. To the right, two additional individuals are standing near a low, dark stone structure or wall, facing towards the right side of the frame. One person, wearing a light-colored jacket, stands upright, while the second is partially obscured behind them. The Great Wall itself, a dark silhouette, snakes along a mountain ridge in the mid-ground, featuring battlements and leading to a prominent watchtower structure. Beyond the watchtower, the wall continues along the ridge. Multiple layers of mountains recede into the distance, appearing progressively lighter and hazier due to atmospheric perspective. In the far distance, to the right of the sun, a city or urban area is dimly visible through the atmospheric haze. The sky transitions from light blue at the top to a bright golden-orange near the horizon, with a few wispy clouds present.
