The sky above is black with many white dots representing stars. The water has several boats of various sizes scattered across it. On the right side, where the mountain meets the water, there are buildings and trees. A large group of people is gathered on the shore. The color palette is muted, with shades of orange, brown, and tan dominating the scene. In the foreground, on the right, there are several structures built into the side of the mountain.
