This image presents a forensic view of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Santiago de Guatemala in Guatemala City, Guatemala, under bright daylight with a partly cloudy sky. The cathedral's ornate, light-colored neo-classical facade is prominent, featuring multiple columns, arched entrances, and statuary on its roofline, including a golden figure on the left tower and a figure holding a cross centrally. Large banners adorn the facade: a central banner depicts a crowned Virgin Mary figure, flanked by two darker banners displaying "1750-2025" and "30 años 1995-2025." Religious flags, including one with yellow, red, and blue horizontal stripes, fly from the cathedral's roof. A sizable crowd of individuals, including adults and children, occupies the paved forecourt and the cathedral steps. People are dressed in casual attire, moving, standing, and congregating; some are observed entering or exiting the cathedral's main doorways. White, confetti-like debris is scattered across the pavement near the cathedral's base. In the lower-left foreground, an orange traffic cone with a white reflective stripe stands upright, casting a distinct shadow to its left on the gray pavement. Visible individuals include a woman holding a baby alongside a young girl on the left, a woman walking away from the viewer towards the cathedral in the center, and a man and woman conversing on the right. Strong shadows are cast across the ground, indicating direct sunlight.
