The image captures a sunlit street scene in Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The ground is an unpaved, light-brown dirt surface, showing sparse debris. In the background, a two-story light-colored building is visible on the left, prominently displaying the word "COMPLEXE" in large letters. Adjacent to it, another building appears to be a storefront. Several motorcycles or mopeds are parked in front of these structures, and additional individuals are visible in the background near them. In the midground-left, a cluster of approximately 6-8 adults is present, primarily facing away or to the side. Several individuals in this group wear white shirts, some with dark accents, resembling uniforms. One individual, partially obscured but wearing a dark top and light pants, holds a young child clad in a light blue top. Another adult in the center wears a white top with green accents and dark blue shorts, facing away from the camera. In the midground-right, a young child, approximately 3-5 years old with a shaved head, stands independently, looking towards the right. The child wears a long-sleeved, multi-patterned shirt (pink, black, yellow) and dark trousers with light-colored shoes. In the lower-left foreground, the torso and legs of an individual wearing a green shirt and light blue jeans are partially visible. On the ground in the lower-center, a pile of grey concrete blocks and a crumpled, light-colored bag or fabric are present. A partial wooden structure with faded blue paint is visible on the extreme lower-right. Strong shadows are cast across the foreground and midground, originating from an unseen object on the left and from the standing individuals.
