This is a photograph of a crowd wearing 3D glasses. The image shows a large group of people sitting closely together, all facing the same direction. They are uniformly dressed in formal clothing, such as suits, and monochromatic shades dominate the scene. The most striking feature is the 3D glasses worn by everyone present. The crowd appears to be focusing and watching something.
