Near the right edge, a man walks away from camera. At center, 2 women (left and center) and a man (right) lean over a low stone parapet that stretches across the image. They stand with their backs to the camera and face towards the distance, tilting their heads downward. Beyond the porch, mountains rise in the distance.
