Description
A quiet, curved residential street is shown around dusk, with dim lighting and a partly cloudy sky. Three city buses are visible on the road—two red buses closer to the foreground and a yellow bus farther in the background. Leafless trees line the street, and a two-story residential building with multiple doorways is situated on the right. Streetlights and sidewalks border the road, and houses and structures can be seen in the distance.
