The photograph shows a young woman sitting on a towel on a sandy beach, looking at her smartphone while apparently taking a selfie. She is wearing a pink patterned bikini and is seated with her knees drawn up, one arm extended toward the phone and the other hand resting against her face. A small necklace is visible around her neck.
The composition has a strong shallow-depth-of-field effect. She is sharply rendered in the foreground, while almost everything behind her becomes pleasantly blurred. Several colorful beach umbrellas—particularly turquoise, blue and green—fill the background, along with sun loungers and other beachgoers. A person lying on a towel behind her is almost completely softened by the focus, giving the image a very photographic, telephoto feel.
There is also an interesting detail at the far right: part of a green-and-yellow beach umbrella is visible, with lettering on it, although it isn’t sufficiently clear in the image to confidently identify the brand or location. The red-and-white polka-dot item beside the woman’s towel adds another strong splash of color to the foreground.
