Description

A rocky shoreline slopes down to calm water on the left, with scattered boulders and loose stones across the ground. In the centre-right a large rounded stone structure, its edge built of stones, sits on the rock, and a thin pole stands upright near the water's edge. A dark object is visible at the bottom edge of the frame.
