Description
A wire fence encloses a dry field with sparse grass and sandy soil. At the center of the lot stands a tall metal structure with ladders and platforms, possibly a piece of monitoring or industrial equipment. A small, tilted sign is attached to the fence on the left side. In the background, several white residential buildings and utility poles are visible under a clear blue sky.
