The image depicts a night scene with a slightly elevated point of view. Birds are flying in motion in the upper right portion of the image. The horizon is low, above a mass of water, with blurred lights of a distant cityscape or harbor. The lights create a scattered line against the darkness. The image has a soft focus, possibly from a long exposure. The color palette is monochrome with deep blacks and grayscale tones.
