The image is a black and white photograph depicting three children near the lakeshore. One child, appearing to be female based on attire and hairstyle, is using long-handled net or scoop to gather material from the water's edge into a bag. The second child, also seemingly female but in looser fitting clothing indicative of playwear, is squatting down with their hands actively engaged either collecting something near the ground or smoothing out wet sand.

The third figure is partially obscured and appears male based on physical features visible; this individual is kneeling in the water's edge, possibly scooping up material similar to the first child. All three individuals are barefooted, suggesting a casual setting focused around playing by the lake.

In the background, there is an expansive view of Lake Mangakino with rolling hills and sparse vegetation under a partly cloudy sky. The landscape suggests that this scene occurs in New Zealand's rural North Island region where such lakes are common.

The photograph captures a candid moment of childhood play on or near water bodies, likely during one of the warmer seasons due to their attire which is more suitable for outdoor activities rather than cold weather wear.
