A group photo of five people, likely a family, posing in front of a police lineup height chart backdrop. From left to right, there is a teenage girl in a grey long-sleeved shirt, a teenage boy in a dark green Michigan State University t-shirt, a younger teenage boy in a green 'Go Green' Spartan hoodie, an adult woman in a white top and tan cardigan, and an adult man in a red t-shirt and baseball cap. They are all smiling and standing casually against the white wall which features black horizontal lines and numerical height markers ranging from four feet six inches to seven feet. The lighting is slightly uneven, suggesting an indoor public space or interactive exhibit.
