A man sits on a low stool in the foreground, facing right, against a vast expanse of bagged produce in Sard-E 'olya, Afghanistan. He wears a tan blazer over a plaid shirt, brown shalwar kameez-style pants, and grey sneakers, with a dark cap on his head and an identification lanyard around his neck. He holds a pair of glasses in his right hand. The ground is dry, light-colored soil. Behind him, thousands of red mesh bags, each containing light-colored fruit (likely pomegranates or apples), are spread across the ground, forming a dense field of produce extending into the background. To the right, a two-story, unpainted concrete building with a corrugated metal roof stands. A large red and white sign, featuring text in Dari/Pashto that reads "رود پروسیس کمپنی" (Rud Process Company) and "مالو" (Malo), is mounted above an open-air section of the building. Inside this section, at least two individuals in protective clothing (white coats/aprons, hairnets, and possibly face masks) are visible, one standing near stainless steel processing tables. To the left, an orange excavator is parked on the dusty ground. Arid, rocky mountains rise sharply in the far background under a clear, bright blue sky. A low wall separates the immediate area from the distant mountains.
