A light-colored equine, consistent with a pony, stands in a dirt enclosure within Sarouja Municipality, Syria. The animal, predominantly cream or palomino with subtle reddish-brown markings on its body and lower legs, is oriented with its head lowered towards the ground, facing the lower-left quadrant of the frame. A blue halter with silver-toned metal rings and buckles is fitted around its head. Its long, thick mane and forelock, appearing light brown or blonde, are heavily backlit by a low-angle light source, creating significant highlights and casting light through the strands. The visible right eye is partially closed or directed downwards. Small dark specks, possibly flies or debris, are present around the eye and muzzle area. The ground consists of dark, disturbed earth with scattered organic matter. In the background, a metal fence and a concrete or stone structure are partially visible, with green foliage behind the fence. No human subjects are present. The scene is illuminated by natural sunlight, suggesting either early morning or late afternoon.
