This image depicts an urban street scene in Johannesburg, Gauteng Province, South Africa, on an overcast day. In the foreground, a circular, metal manhole cover with a patterned surface is set into the concrete pavement on the lower left. To its right stands a light grey, rectangular concrete utility pillar, affixed to a raised concrete base. The pillar is heavily covered with old, torn posters and stickers. A prominent sticker near the bottom advertises "ABORTION SAFE & PAIN FREE" with a phone number "078 776 0432". Above it, a pink poster displays two male figures in uniform-like attire. A tarnished metal tap protrudes from the pillar's left side. The ground immediately surrounding the pillar and manhole cover consists of cracked concrete, exposed reddish-brown soil, and patches of green grass and weeds. To the right of the pillar, a pile of black and white plastic garbage bags and loose refuse lies on the ground amongst the weeds, adjacent to a concrete drainage channel. Further right, a single white plastic refuse bag rests on the edge of the concrete drainage structure. The paved sidewalk, constructed from interlocking grey bricks with occasional red accents, shows signs of wear, unevenness, and cracks. In the midground, the sidewalk extends under a colonnaded walkway formed by robust, fluted concrete pillars of a multi-story building on the left. Several pedestrians are present on the sidewalk; one individual in a white t-shirt and blue jeans is visible on the far left, while a group, including a person in a red dress, stands further down. Parallel to the sidewalk, an asphalt road features two visible lanes. A white SUV, possibly a Nissan Sani or similar model, equipped with a front bull bar and auxiliary lights, is either parked or slowly moving near the curb. Its license plate, "EJSG 97 GP," confirms its registration in Gauteng Province. To its right, a silver-grey hatchback (resembling a Ford Fiesta) is parked parallel to the curb, with its rear tire and a reddish-brown liquid stain on the wet curb area visible. Other vehicles, including a red car, are visible further along the road. The background shows more multi-story urban buildings, with discernible windows and balconies, extending into the distance. Green foliage and trees are visible above the structures. The sky is uniformly bright, indicating an overcast condition.
