To the left of the woman and the dolphins is an empty platform attached to a brick wall, with a bucket hanging from the platform's railing. A large net hangs in the air above the pool along with strings of small pennants. In the background beyond the pool's farthest side are rows of bleachers with dozens of people seated in them to watch the dolphin show. Beyond the bleachers are multiple tall trees, their foliage blocking out the sky.
