This image depicts a serene canal or waterway scene in the Sluseløbet area of Københavns Sydhavn, Copenhagen, Denmark, looking east towards Amager. In the foreground, a narrow strip of mown green grass borders a concrete coping along the water's edge. Moored along this bank are several boats. From closest to furthest: a white speedboat with a dark blue hull stripe and a dark blue cockpit cover; a light blue and white motorboat with a dark blue full canopy and wooden-trimmed windows; and a classic wooden motorboat with a varnished brown hull and a dark blue stern canopy, named "FRESA" on its cabin. Further left, a white sailboat with a tall white mast, black rigging, and a red mainsail cover is also moored. The calm, dark water of the waterway extends into the mid-ground. Dark wooden mooring posts are spaced along the water, securing the boats. The far bank is lined with dense, dried reeds, behind which a thick band of deciduous trees displays green and yellow-orange autumn foliage. A small house with a red roof is partially visible among these trees on the right side of the background. In the distant background, centered to the left, the prominent industrial structures of the H.C. Ørsted Værket power plant are visible. Multiple grey chimneys rise from the plant, with one on the left actively emitting a plume of white-grey smoke or steam that disperses into the overcast sky. The sky above is entirely covered by a uniform layer of light grey clouds, indicating an overcast day. No individuals are present in the scene.
