This image, taken in Rafin Bauna, Nigeria, depicts an outdoor scene featuring two individuals engaged in a manual process involving granular material. In the left foreground, a young person with dark skin, wearing a black long-sleeved top and a pink and black patterned headwrap with "GN" visible, stands in profile looking down towards the activity. To the right, two dark-skinned hands are visible, actively manipulating a light blue plastic bowl inside a larger, weathered, blue trough-like container. The trough contains a light-colored, granular substance, possibly mixed with blue residue, which also adheres to the hands. The ground is bare earth covered with numerous dry, brown leaves and sparse, dry vegetation. A tree with green leaves and a visible trunk occupies the upper left portion of the frame, providing shade. In the mid-ground, a dense cluster of dried, broad-leafed plant stalks is present. A light gray cinder block wall is visible in the background, partially obscured by foliage. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight.
