The image shows three individuals captured from the waist up. The first person is on the left and is standing sideways, facing to the left. The second person, a woman with short-cropped hair, is next to them, facing slightly right. The third person is standing slightly behind the woman, with their back turned partially to the camera. The third person has short, light-colored hair and is wearing a jacket. The third person is holding a large stuffed bear with both arms in front of them. The background features a carnival or fair setting, with a lighted booth structure visible, and grass covers the ground beneath them. The image is in black and white, with a textured film grain. There is a number, "289," written in red on the right margin of the photograph.
