The scene depicts the lower trunk of a large tree and its surrounding ground cover at Bangalum Bridge, Papua New Guinea. The tree trunk exhibits textured, dark brown and grey bark, heavily colonized by patches of light green and white lichen, interspersed with areas of dark green moss, particularly denser towards the base. Multiple fern fronds are prominent: a broad, dark green fern frond with visible parallel venation extends horizontally across the mid-left, while a lighter green fern frond with numerous smaller, uniform leaflets grows vertically in the central-right foreground. The ground around the tree's base is densely covered with various green foliage, including smaller fern species, grasses, and broad-leafed ground cover plants, some with heart-shaped leaves. Scattered brown, desiccated leaves are visible on the verdant ground. No human subjects, objects of human origin, or discernible actions are present in the image.
