The scene depicts an outdoor, dusty environment, identifiable as a market or roadside area in Kandahar, Afghanistan, with arid mountains in the background. In the foreground, slightly left of center, an older man with a dark beard and a black turban looks directly towards the viewer. He wears a khaki-colored traditional shalwar kameez, a dark pinstripe waistcoat, and a brown shawl draped over his left shoulder. His expression is neutral. Behind and to the right of the foreground subject, a second man with a dark beard, also wearing a khaki-colored shalwar kameez, rides a silver and red motorcycle from right to left on an unpaved road. The midground features several parked vehicles, including light-colored cars and a dark pickup truck, lining the dusty road. Behind these vehicles are a series of makeshift market stalls or shops with colorful fabric awnings and tarpaulin roofs. A tall, slender tree with light green foliage stands amidst the structures. To the far left, a stack of wooden crates or pallets is visible. Overhead, power lines traverse the scene. The background consists of barren, rocky mountains or hills under a clear, pale blue sky, indicating bright daylight conditions.
