What were your results?

There is always more data points to observe. Some information in the picture was not asked in the questions above, and therefore irrelevant for the quiz. However, the context of the scene made much of that 'noise' important to understanding what was happening in the picture. Can you summarize what happened in the photo in one brief sentence?
