Description
A muddy area with dark, oily liquid pooled among sparse grass and patches of exposed earth. Large rocks and clumps of dry soil are scattered in the foreground, partially framing the contaminated section. The liquid appears to have seeped into the ground, discoloring the soil and affecting the surrounding vegetation. The overall setting suggests environmental degradation or chemical contamination.
