The image is a black and white photograph of a body of water. The water appears to be choppy and turbulent, with small waves crashing around the edges. In the center of the image, there is a large, dark-colored object that looks like a seal or a whale. The object is partially submerged in the water, with its head and neck visible above the surface. The image is taken from a low angle, looking up at the object. The overall mood of the photograph is somber and desolate.
