The image captures a daytime maritime scene observed from the stern of a vessel in the waters of the Strait of Gibraltar, specifically in the vicinity of Ceuta, Spain. The vessel's white, frothy wake extends diagonally from the lower left corner into the deep blue, moderately choppy water. In the immediate foreground on the right, elements of the ship's deck are visible: a dark red top railing, supported by white metal stanchions, borders a deck floor covered in green artificial turf. A partial view of a light-colored wooden and metal deck chair is present at the bottom right. Shadows are cast from left to right across the artificial turf. The distant horizon features multiple vessels navigating the waterway, including a prominent large, dark-hulled tanker in the mid-right, and other cargo or container ships scattered across the expanse. Distant landmasses are visible on both sides of the horizon; a coastline with discernible structures appears on the left, while hilly terrain is present on the right. The sky is bright blue, with scattered white cumulus clouds, particularly concentrated in the upper right quadrant. A small dark bird is in flight beneath the clouds on the right side of the image. A very small, faint, dark horizontal object, consistent with a distant aircraft, is visible higher in the central sky.
