This is a photograph of two individuals in utility gear on a telephone pole. The individual on the left hangs upside down from the pole, supported by belts and harnesses. The other, standing, uses harnesses to maintain stability and interacts with the hanging individual, appearing to give them mouth-to-mouth. The background is a blank sky.
