The image shows a black and white photograph looking downward across a landscape. The horizon is above the center, there is a thin column of smoke rising towards the horizon, and a grassy terrain with undulations in the foreground. Beyond is a dense forest of tall, slender trees extending into the distance. The color palette is various shades of gray, giving a serene and natural visual impact. The medium appears to be a photographic print.
