A medium shot photograph of a group of young children walking away from the viewer, their backs facing the camera. They are wearing colorful clothing and backpacks, and many have hats on. They appear to be walking in a line on a paved surface, possibly a sidewalk or courtyard, with a few adults visible in the background. The scene is brightly lit, suggesting daylight. The children’s clothing and the outdoor setting imply a casual, possibly school or outing-related context.

A close-up photograph of a yellow neon sign displaying the words "smell," "taste," and "touch," stacked vertically. Each word is separated by a horizontal yellow neon line. The background is a slightly darker, textured surface, possibly a wall, with a subtle sheen. The neon tubes are bright and emit a warm yellow glow.
