The scene takes place on a paved road in Accra, Ghana, near the Makola Market. The image captures a group of people, primarily children, standing on the street. A young girl in a red shirt and a bandana is holding a strand of hair, possibly her own, and looking toward the viewer. She stands in front of two other girls, one with a colorful floral-print skirt and a blue bandana, and another wearing a blue and red patterned shirt, a blue bandana, and a blue patterned skirt. They are all looking directly at the camera. A young boy, also wearing a bandana, is in the background, standing slightly behind the girl in red. He wears a blue and white striped shirt and is looking slightly to the left of the camera. An older woman, wearing a long-sleeved blue blouse and a black skirt, is walking away from the camera to the right of the scene, her back to the camera. Another adult, with a backpack, is walking in the same direction. The scene is bright and sunny, with the shadows of the people and objects clearly visible on the ground. There is a small traffic light visible in the background, which is green. There are also various items scattered on the ground, including a plastic container, some trash, and a pair of red flip-flops.
