A scene observed from a moving boat in Dumbéa, France, depicts a body of dark green-grey water under a heavily overcast sky. The lower left foreground reveals the light-colored, horizontally paneled hull of the boat, with a grey vertical support beam extending upward from the left edge. A distinct wake of white foam trails alongside the boat, indicating forward motion. The water surface is textured with small ripples. In the mid-distance, a strip of land covered in dense, dark green foliage, consistent with mangroves, spans the horizon. Beyond this, faint, undulating hills or mountains are visible. The sky is dominated by thick, dark grey clouds, providing diffuse, subdued lighting across the landscape. No individuals or additional subjects are present.
