Stretched and framed View of swamp and Jerome camp. In the foreground a culvert opens into a reflecting pool of standing water
surrounded by tall dry grasses. At midground a horizontal path spans the image. A water filled ditch with plank walkways recedes
to vanishing point, background left. Next to it, yellow and red laundry hang in open area between ditch and rows of barracks
which recede to vanishing point left under a grey sky.
