This image captures an outdoor market scene in Kujama, Nigeria, under overcast conditions. In the foreground, a crude wooden table, draped with a clear plastic sheet, serves as a vendor's stall. On the table, two distinct piles of peeled, yellowish-white sugarcane segments are displayed: a larger pile of approximately 30-35 segments on the left and a smaller pile of 10-12 segments on the right, alongside two additional single segments. A dark-skinned male, with short dark hair, wearing a light-colored short-sleeve shirt, dark shorts, and a red band on his right wrist, stands behind the table, facing the viewer. To the immediate left of the table, a second dark-skinned male sits directly on the muddy ground. He wears a dark long-sleeve shirt, blue shorts, and a camouflage baseball cap. A black pouch hangs from his neck, and he is actively peeling a piece of sugarcane with a small, light-colored tool. A blue plastic bucket, containing clear liquid, rests on the muddy ground beneath the table. The ground throughout the scene is muddy and littered with discarded sugarcane leaves and stalks. Large quantities of unpeeled sugarcane stalks, exhibiting variations in color from dark purple to green, are piled extensively across the ground, forming the primary commodity of the market. In the mid-ground and background, numerous individuals, including men, women, and children, are visible amidst additional piles of sugarcane and simple market stalls constructed with corrugated metal roofs. Some individuals in the background are holding red or pink umbrellas. A utility pole with overhead wires and a red and white "POS" sign are also visible in the mid-ground.
