Image of Daisy Chain's main site. A path is surrounded by grass, woodchip and white flowers, leading up to the reception door of the main building, a brick and warm wood building with a tin roof. A bench is to the left of the building, and the farmhouse is visible in the background. The sky is light blue, with a few white clouds visible.
A young girl and man are kneeling on a blue carpet and playing with a spacecraft toy. She has her light hair in a plait, and is wearing a magenta pink long sleeved top and grey jogging bottoms. His arm and white t-shirt and navy bottoms are somewhat visible.
