The image displays a two-lane asphalt road in Sandamal Eliya, Sri Lanka, under an overcast sky. The perspective is from the roadside, looking down the thoroughfare as it recedes into the distance. On the left side of the road, large, mature trees with dense green foliage, some exhibiting small reddish-orange flowers, dominate the foreground and midground, casting shade. Numerous dark utility poles with complex networks of overhead power and communication lines run parallel to the road along this side. Dense undergrowth and smaller trees are visible beneath the primary tree canopy. The right side of the road features less dense vegetation, revealing several low-rise structures. A building with a light grey wall and a blue roll-up gate or door is visible in the midground. A signpost is positioned near this building. Further down the road on the right, a slender palm tree stands out against the sky. The asphalt road has a dashed white centerline and a solid white line defining its left edge. Traffic moves away from the viewer. A white panel van or minibus is prominent in the right lane, followed by a smaller dark vehicle. At least two motorcycles are also present on the road, one behind the white van and another further down. Two individuals are visible on the right roadside: one is seated near the grey wall and blue gate, partially obscured, and another is further down the road near a small building, also appearing seated or standing.
