The image depicts an outdoor food preparation and serving area in Rijiyar Zaki, Nigeria, under daylight conditions, casting distinct shadows. A young individual, likely male, wearing a yellow short-sleeved shirt with black markings, is crouched behind a rough wooden counter, intently looking down at the food items arranged on the ground. A person's legs in blue trousers are partially visible on the far left. On the ground level, in front of the counter, numerous food containers are arranged. In the foreground, a large, silver-colored aluminum pot brimming with a dark red stew or sauce sits uncovered, with its lid resting beside it. To its right, a large grey plastic bucket contains white rice, with a dark, irregular object partially embedded in its center. Further to the right, a smaller silver pot holds a dark orange-red stew with a yellow ladle immersed within it. To the left, a black cylindrical container holds yellow granular food, possibly gari. Next to it, an orange plastic bucket also contains yellow granular food mixed with red elements. A smaller silver pot of red stew is visible between these and the rice bucket. A green plastic bucket is positioned near the grey rice bucket. A blue plastic bucket, partially covered by a black plastic bag, contains multiple white, dough-like portions of food. The background consists of a corrugated metal sheet wall, from which a red plastic bowl or lid hangs. Above this, several woven baskets are visible, some dark and some lighter. A sturdy wooden beam functions as a counter or barrier across the middle ground. The ground surface appears to be rough concrete or packed dirt.
