A collage of six photos shows friends spending time together in various settings. Outdoors, two friends sit on the grass during a lively daytime event, making peace signs. At an indoor gathering, three friends pose side-by-side in a room decorated with white chairs and red balloons. In another outdoor scene, two friends stand next to a tree, holding and pointing at a hand-drawn sketch. At an ice hockey rink, two friends smile and give a thumbs-up with the action happening behind them. On an outdoor balcony, two friends share a hug with buildings and leafy trees in the background. At a nighttime event, three friends in casual outfits pose together, one wearing a baseball cap, while others around them appear to be enjoying the same event.
