Three children are shown immersed in muddy water, only their heads visible above the surface. The child in the middle wears swimming goggles, while the others do not. They are facing the camera at different distances. One child has short hair, one has slicked back hair, and the third child has wet medium-length hair. No visible clothing or jewelry is identified. A fourth child's arm and upper torso are faintly visible in the background, reaching towards the edge of the pool or pond. Shadows fall across the water's surface, which is outdoors.
