The middle shelves of an open fridge. On the lower shelf is a plate of oysters, a red can of Resch’s beer, two yellow Bonsoy long-life milk cartons, turned on their side. In front of them is a iced latte, in a clear plastic takeaway cup. On the shelf above are two more iced coffees, both in takeaway cups. To their left a red and green Fountain Tomato Sauce bottle lies on its sides. Slightly behind them and to the right is a carton of Oak Iced Coffee. Sitting on top of that is an almost empty bread bag. In front of the bread bag is a round sponge cake with pink icing and a cherry on top. A large slice has been cut from the right side of the cake.

Two people kneel on the ground in a wooded area, closely observing as two dogs sniff the earth. The scene is set in a grove with rows of trees, and sunlight filters through the branches, creating a warm, dappled light. The individuals and dogs appear focused, likely searching for something in the soil, with the calm, natural surroundings enhancing the sense of quiet concentration.
