This image depicts a brightly lit outdoor or semi-outdoor scene in Cotonou, Benin. **Subject:** A female individual of dark complexion occupies the right and central foreground, looking slightly upwards and to the right. She wears a white collared, long-sleeved shirt with "ESA" embroidered in orange and blue on the right chest area. A long, gold-colored beaded necklace with a central medallion hangs around her neck. She wears round-rimmed eyeglasses with patterned frames and a white wireless earbud in her left ear. Her hair is styled in black braids, pulled back and secured by a black headband. A light pink or patterned shoulder bag is visible over her right shoulder. **Environment (Immediate):** The individual is situated under a concrete overhang or within a covered walkway. The ceiling is light grey/off-white, exhibiting some wear and discoloration, and features an unlit horizontal fluorescent light fixture. Grey structural beams are visible. To the right, a wall contains multiple rectangular panels, possibly windows or ventilation, with dark inserts framed by lighter wood or metal. **Environment (Background):** To the left of the individual, an uneven, light-colored paved surface extends into the mid-ground. A white two-wheeled scooter (moped) is parked on this surface in the mid-left. Further in the background, low-rise structures and a white cylindrical water tank on a rooftop are visible under a partly cloudy sky.
