Description

Three boys are playing with a soccer ball in what appears to be a seaside town near the Essaouira Citadel in Morocco. The boy in the foreground is facing the camera and kicking a soccer ball, while the other two boys are walking in the background near a concrete ledge. A flock of seagulls flies in the distance above the boys. A boat hull rests on the concrete and next to a stone wall. The environment has an urban feel, possibly near a harbor or coastal area. The lighting is bright, suggesting it is daytime. The buildings in the background are made of stone and have a historic or fortress-like architecture. There are shadows cast on the ground, indicating a sunny day.
