The image captures an outdoor scene in Namisha, Democratic Republic of the Congo, centered on a group of approximately ten individuals gathered around an open excavation. A roughly rectangular pit, dug into reddish-brown soil, occupies the lower-mid section of the frame, with excavated earth piled around its edges. Two men are actively digging: one, wearing a blue jacket and a wide-brimmed hat, uses a long-handled spade; another, in a white collared shirt and dark trousers, uses a shorter-handled shovel. Other individuals observe the activity. To the right of the digging, a man in a red t-shirt and distressed blue jeans stands. Another man in a light brown suit stands nearby. Further back, several other individuals, including a man with a beard in a white shirt and a person in a patterned garment, are present. In the extreme foreground on the left, a person in a blue jacket is partially visible from behind, holding a folded purple umbrella or fabric. The ground is reddish-brown earth with sparse dry grass and plant debris. The background features lush green vegetation under a clear, light blue sky.
