Musicians

A group of people relax on blankets beneath fully bloomed cherry blossom trees at Tom McCall Waterfront Park in Portland, Oregon on a sunny spring day. In the foreground, a woman in a wide-brimmed brown hat and rust-colored pants plays an acoustic guitar, while a second woman reclines with her eyes closed enjoying the sun, and a third plays a ukulele. Picnic blankets, bags, and belongings are scattered across the grass. More visitors and a bridge over the Willamette River are visible in the soft background. — ISO 100 · 110mm · f/2 · 1/1250

Audience members surrounding them cheer, raise their hands, and hold up smartphones to capture the moment.
