The scene depicts a beach and ocean environment, presented with a specified location in Vinh Yên, Vietnam, despite Vinh Yên being an inland city. The sky is overcast and uniformly grey, extending down to meet a grey-blue ocean. Multiple lines of white-capped waves break and recede onto a light-brown sandy beach. A lone individual, dressed in a yellow long-sleeved top and brown pants, stands on the wet sand at the water's edge, facing the ocean with their back to the viewer. The immediate foreground features a sandy incline partially covered with green foliage, broken concrete structures, and visible debris, including a large mass of dark, exposed tree roots and branches on the right. A small, dark boat is faintly visible on the distant horizon line to the upper right.
