This is a black and white photo of boys preparing to dive from a makeshift diving board. The diving board is made of a long, wooden plant propped against wooden stands coming from the water. There is one boy on the end of the diving board, and there is one boy waiting behind him. There are five boys swimming in the water, and there is a rubber inner tube floating in the water. There is a piece of cloth wrapped around and hanging from the end of the diving board, and the body of water is surrounded by a grassy field and trees lining the horizon.
