The image is take with a long-exposure, meaning there are blurry traces of where there has been movment. Yyan stands still in front of Emily. Yyan holds a string instrument in front of him, this instrument and his hand is blurry from moving left from right. Emily holds the bow of the string instrument above her head, the bow and her hand is blurry from moving it up and over her head. Emily wears black, making her hands and face most apparent, and her body almost becoming one with the black background. Emily looks straight into the camera, Yyan looks to the right.]
