This image depicts an outdoor gathering in Sard-E 'olya, Afghanistan, under clear blue skies with bright sunlight. The foreground is dominated by a young adult male, positioned slightly left of center, looking directly at the camera with a neutral expression. He wears a teal-green disposable hairnet and a light blue surgical mask pulled down below his chin. His attire consists of a blue work shirt with a dark brown collar and a left chest pocket, and matching blue trousers. His arms are crossed over his chest. The ground is covered with multiple red and black patterned rugs or carpets. In the mid-ground and background, numerous individuals, primarily males, are seated on chairs or on the ground, attending an event. They are dressed in various casual and traditional garments. A large, makeshift canopy constructed from camouflage netting or similar fabric, supported by poles, provides shade over the gathering. A lighter-colored tarp is visible further left. Bare tree branches are present on the far left. A banner or display board with red and white text and graphics is visible under the main canopy.
