Like in the last two pics if they were military or maybe like someone lost in the woods and coming to a village they weren't sure if was friendly or enemy.
"The Soldier exited the forest and scouted the village"
It would maybe be gazed if it was someone observing a sight. For example
"Mark gazed into the distance and observed the beautiful mountains"
The one picture looks like she's shielding her eyes from the sun
"Maria gazed into the distance, shielding her eyes from the rising run"
