Dusk photograph of a children's game setup on open dirt ground. A tall wooden frame with a horizontal crossbar hangs colourful balloons in yellow, red and orange, plus tinsel streamers, from which a rope dangles. Several people in white clothes with orange shawls stand around the frame, some facing away, one at left holding an object near his face. A bright light glows at right beside a tree line, and a faint blue twilight sky fills the background. No identifiable a person candidate is clearly visible in appearance.
