Description
A field with tall grass and wildflowers, including white daisies and small pink blooms, dominates the foreground. In the background, piles of soil and a piece of construction equipment are visible on a dirt lot. The area appears to be partially cleared or under development. A few trees and shrubs frame the right and top edges of the image, and the sky is clear and bright.
