A man sits on a sandy beach and pets a dog in this outdoor shot. The man is shirtless and wearing black and white shorts. He's sitting on his haunches with his right hand resting on the dog's neck and head. The dog is standing, facing toward the ocean and slightly toward the camera. It is light brown and white. Other people are visible in the background, including some walking in the shallow water at the edge of the beach. Behind them are palm trees and a bit of hazy sky with clouds. There is also a dark object in the foreground, appearing to be a piece of driftwood.
