Description

Photograph of two teenagers at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. On the left, a boy with short hair, glasses, and a striped button-up shirt stands behind a tall box of folded papers. He looks down at one unfolded paper, likely revealing a map, held by the girl next to him. She has long hair and wears a dark button-up shirt with lighter edges and a matching skirt, with a name tag pinned near her shirt's left collar. She sits on a stool to the right of the other teen and the box of papers, looking to the left as she holds a paper open. To the teens' right is the edge of a planter with a shrub slightly visible. Behind them, a paved pathway runs in front of a curbed area with tall poles that curl inwards at the top. The poles are regularly spaced apart, with the right most pole being the closest to the foreground while the others lead into the background, each with a bushy flowering plant hanging from its curl. A thin tree grows behind the leftmost pole, providing shade. Behind the curling poles runs a planter with small trees and shrubs in it, its walls rising a short distance from the ground. The background beyond the planter is grass leading to a line of additional trees and small plants.
