The image depicts an urban street scene in Lagos, Nigeria, centered on waste management operations. **People:** Two adult males are in the foreground. The individual on the left, seen from behind, wears a brown and blue plaid long-sleeved shirt, dark trousers, light-colored flat shoes, and a light-colored baseball cap. A long, flat tool, possibly a machete, is held against his right leg. A second male, mostly obscured, stands behind him, wearing a dark shirt and cap. Both appear to be waste management workers. In the background, behind a chain-link fence, a person in light blue clothing is partially visible. **Objects:** An orange refuse collection vehicle is positioned on the left, its rear loading mechanism tilted upwards and laden with mixed solid waste. Extensive piles of refuse, consisting of plastic bags, wrappers, and general debris, accumulate on the ground, partially covering a light-colored tarp or sheet. Several large sacks are present, including a prominent green sack on the far left labeled "Radhiker Indian Parboiled Rice" with an image of a woman. The ground is a dark, presumably asphalt, surface, heavily strewn with litter. In the background, multiple makeshift commercial structures are visible, including a red-paneled stall displaying "Chivita" and "Hollandia" signage, and a building with a green corrugated metal roof. A dark utility pole with "LOB4" marked on it stands near a chain-link fence on the right. **Actions/Interactions:** The two men are standing near the refuse vehicle and waste piles, indicating their involvement in waste collection or sorting. The scene portrays ongoing refuse handling in a public space. **Environment:** The setting is an urban street under a bright, partially cloudy sky. Overhead, numerous electrical wires or utility lines crisscross. The environment is characterized by dense infrastructure, informal commercial activity, and significant accumulation of uncollected waste.
