The low-angle backlighting source transforms the figures' hair into golden halos, making them seem like heavenly figures on Earth. In the foreground, out-of-focus foliage overlaps and frames the figures. The image was taken in 1977 and it is as abstract as it is representational and as dramatic as it is subdued. br The video is showing up a little light. The still image are a little dark.
