A large group of people, some in red shirts, cheer and raise their hands under a red inflatable X-WATERS arch by a lake with mountains in the background. A blue event sign in front reads "X-WATERS SLOVENIA. Three swimmers with orange floatation devices swim in a lake, surrounded by forested hills. In the background, a castle sits atop a rocky hill with a mountain peak rising behind it under a partly cloudy sky. Swimmers in caps and wetsuits start a race by running into the water under a red X-WATERS arch, while crowds cheer and officials in red shirts stand nearby. Splashes fill the foreground. A group of young swimmers in swimsuits and orange swim caps stand behind a “X Waters World Championship” banner, smiling and raising their arms in celebration at an outdoor event.
