According to the negative sleeve, this set of photographs is captured in color. The scans of these images are in black and white.
An out-of-focus photograph of visitors to Stanley Park lounging on the park grounds. A grassy lawn stretches across the image and into the distance. It is viewed from a slightly elevated perspective. Two sunbathers lounge on the grass in the foreground at left. The person nearest to camera lies on their stomach. Behind them, a woman sits up on their blanket; she faces right. Beyond them, other people walk or lie on the grounds. A line of trees stretches across the image in the near distance. The lawn continues to extend past row of trees. Six punched holes line the bottom edge.
