The image presents a close-up, high-angle view of multiple small-to-medium-sized whole fish, consistent with mackerel or similar pelagic species, partially submerged in a dark reddish-brown liquid. Approximately a dozen fish are visible, exhibiting silver coloration with subtle darker markings along their dorsal aspects and hints of yellow or golden hues on their flanks. Their eyes are open and visible. The fish are oriented largely vertically or diagonally, with most heads submerged or pointed downwards. The edge of a green container or basin is faintly visible along the top right. The scene depicts a preparation stage, likely marination, occurring in Cipanas, Indonesia. No individuals or active interactions are depicted.
