Two folklórico dancers perform in front of a crowd outside Petco Park in San Diego. The dancer in the foreground wears a black dress with yellow accents and a wide-brimmed sombrero, twirling a yellow shawl, while the dancer behind her wears a flowing white, yellow, and black ruffled dress, holding out the skirt as she spins. Baseball fans in jerseys and caps watch from behind a barrier, with stadium signage, flags, and downtown buildings visible in the background at sunset.
