Three girls on a weathered wooden dock over a calm blue-green lake at golden late-afternoon light: Lola, 10, brown braided hair, yellow striped tee and jean shorts, sits left holding Mira's hand and smiling at the water; Mira, 9, short black hair with a freckled nose, green tank top, sits center with feet in the water holding a pebble and looking at her friends; Bea, 8, short blonde hair, pink polka-dot dress, sits right hugging a small orange fox plush and leaning against their mother (optionally visible), shy and happy. Tall grasses and reeds at the shore, pine and birch trees in the background, cream summer clouds, shining dragonflies; warm, tender atmosphere, saturated but soft colors, clean 90s cartoon lines, warm late-afternoon lighting with long shadows and textured details on wood and clothing.
