This is a photograph of an urban street scene. The composition shows a pavement with two metal poles anchored into the ground. One pole is rusted. A small patch of overgrown grass or weeds is seen at the base of one pole. In the background, a low concrete wall separates the sidewalk from a parked red car. The pavement and street are marked with faded paint and stains.
