The image presents a daytime street scene in Kandahar, Afghanistan. In the foreground, two young individuals stand facing the camera. The person on the left, dressed in a gray shalwar kameez and a blue headscarf, holds a string of yellow beads in their right hand, with their left arm linked to the right arm of the individual beside them. This second individual, clad in a brown shalwar kameez and a white skullcap, carries a dark bag in their left hand. Both wear sandals. The street is an asphalt road, flanked by concrete sidewalks. Utility poles with multiple lines are visible along the left side of the road. Further down the street, a white sedan is parked, and several individuals are gathered near pushcarts, one of which is loaded with yellow produce. Buildings of various heights and materials, including concrete and stone structures, line the street, interspersed with tall, leafy trees. A light-colored wall with a brown base extends along the right side of the scene. In the distant left background, rocky hills are visible under a clear sky. The scene is brightly lit by direct sunlight, casting distinct shadows.
