A black & white coastal photo. In the immediate foreground is an area densely vegetated with low-growing shrubs that look like little mounds. A solitary small pine tree grows from the shrubs and contrasts with the silvery ocean beyond and below. In the far distance at the horizon, a thin layer of mist or haze hangs over the ocean, The sky above is filled with ragged-looking, uneven clouds.
