An old bus is repurposed into a shelter, partially covered by a makeshift awning. It is parked under the shade of trees, with branches and leaves surrounding it. A small path of stone tiles leads to the entrance, while a detached green hanging tire can be seen nearby. The ground around is dry and sandy, suggesting a rustic or possibly rural setting.

A group of people are gathered outdoors in a forested area, with tall trees in the background. One person, who appears to be a guide or ranger, is speaking into a microphone and holding some papers. The guide or ranger is dressed in a uniform and is wearing a backpack, while the listeners are in casual attire. The atmosphere seems to be educational and informative.
