This image captures an outdoor food preparation or serving scene in Birnin Kebbi, Nigeria. In the foreground, a woman wearing a light pink hijab and abaya, with patterned trousers, is seated beside a black plastic bucket acting as a low table. On a black plastic tray atop the bucket, three bowls contain a granular food item, likely rice mixed with green vegetables or herbs. The woman's right hand, holding a utensil, is positioned near the food, suggesting she is serving or mixing. A black handbag with a chain strap is slung over her shoulder. To her left, a man squats, dressed in a brown long-sleeved tunic and flip-flops. He holds a green bowl filled with a similar granular dish, with his fingers inside the bowl. The ground is predominantly reddish-brown earth, with sections of concrete and small stones. In the background, two pieces of patterned fabric, one with gray spirals and another with brown florals, hang as a makeshift wall or shade, supported by visible bricks at their base. The feet of at least two other individuals are partially visible: one wearing blue slide sandals on the far left, and another in black leather sandals on the bottom right.
