This image captures a beach scene in Zanzibár, Tanzania. Two dark-skinned individuals, appearing male, stand on a debris-covered sandy beach facing each other, with calm ocean water in the background. The individual on the left wears a dark red lower garment and a bright red shawl draped over the shoulders and chest, leaving the right arm exposed. This person has hair styled in a topknot, wears dark sunglasses, and has a multi-banded, possibly beaded, cuff on the right forearm. A sheathed, dark-handled blade, appearing to be a short sword or large knife, hangs from a belt on the left hip. This individual holds a folded red fabric item in the left hand and gestures towards the second person. The individual on the right wears a dark red garment wrapped around the lower body and a patterned blue, red, and white shawl draped over the shoulders and chest. This person also wears dark sunglasses or eyeglasses and a black fanny pack or waist bag around the waist. A folded red fabric item is held in both hands at chest level. On the ground near their feet are two large, rectangular, plaid-patterned woven tote bags in shades of grey, white, and black. A light blue item is visible inside the left bag. The beach surface is predominantly covered with a dense layer of dark brown organic matter, likely seaweed or seagrass debris. The background consists of light blue ocean water with minimal surface disturbance. In the immediate foreground, out-of-focus green foliage is visible.
