An overhead photograph captures a black domestic dog seated on a dry, light brown dirt surface in the city of Chimbay, Uzbekistan. The dog possesses short, dark fur, a small white patch on its chest, and white markings on its front right paw. Its ears are dark and laid back, and its eyes are dark, focused directly towards the camera. Light-colored dust or debris is visible on the top of the dog's head. The dog is positioned centrally in the frame, with its body facing forward. The ground is characterized by numerous small indentations, likely footprints, and scattered tiny stones and plant debris. Strong, direct sunlight from the upper right casts a prominent, elongated shadow of the dog extending behind and to its left. No other subjects or structures are visible in the immediate environment.
