A young woman named Penelope is photographed riding in a golf cart at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April 2012. She holds a decorative red Japanese-style paper parasol (wagasa) aloft, smiling broadly and radiating joy while wearing large black sunglasses, a colorful green and red tie-dye style top. The setting is clearly an outdoor festival grounds with sandy/dusty terrain, white fencing, and tents and parked vehicles visible in the background against a mountainous horizon and bright blue sky. The wide-angle lens creates an immersive, dynamic composition that captures both the festive spirit and the sprawling open landscape characteristic of the Empire Polo Club grounds. A second person visible on the right edge of the frame appears to be driving or accompanying her.
