The elephant has rough, grey skin with sparse, reddish-brown hair visible on its back and head. Its eyes are visible, and its trunk hangs downwards.

An overhead shot shows the rear end of an animal, possibly a hippopotamus, submerged in murky brown water. The animal's dark, rounded hindquarters are visible above the surface, with splashes of water around them. In the distance, a small brown duck swims on the water. The environment appears to be a natural body of water, possibly a lake or river, with a bank of dirt and vegetation in the upper portion of the frame. The lower portion of the frame shows the top of a person's head and sunglasses, suggesting the photographer is standing on a shore or a dock. The scene is not specifically located in Nizhnyaya Shilovka, Russia.

A side-profile, close-up, eye-level, outdoor photograph captures a large, green praying mantis on a weathered wooden deck. The mantis is positioned from the mid-body to its head, with its long, slender body angled diagonally across the frame from the lower left to the upper right. Its forelegs are held in front, folded in a characteristic predatory posture, with sharp spines visible. The mantis's elongated neck and head are visible at the upper right, facing towards the right edge of the image. Its body is segmented and its green exoskeleton has a subtle sheen. The wooden deck has a prominent grain and appears to be made of planks, with visible texture and cracks. A small, metallic screw head is visible on the deck near the lower center of the image. In the background, out of focus, is a blurred area of lush green foliage, suggesting an outdoor setting with trees and possibly a hint of sky or distant structures. The lighting appears to be natural daylight, creating soft shadows. There are no people or other animals visible in the image. The image is sharpest on the praying mantis and the wooden deck immediately surrounding it.
