A daytime scene in Anapa, Russia, depicts five white Mute Swans swimming in the clear, rippled waters of the Black Sea. The swans, characterized by their white plumage and orange beaks with black knobs, are positioned in the foreground and mid-foreground. Four swans face generally towards the right, while one on the far right mid-foreground faces left. In the mid-ground, a substantial concrete pier extends horizontally across the frame. Along this pier, from left to right, are moored several dark-hulled vessels, a light-colored gantry structure or boat lift, and a prominent yellow catamaran passenger vessel. Various poles, lines, and smaller structural elements are visible on the pier. The upper half of the image is dominated by a clear, bright blue sky.
