A close-up, high-angle view captures the needle and presser foot assembly of an industrial sewing machine, located in Jos, Nigeria. The metallic silver-colored presser foot, secured by a screw, rests on a matching metallic throat plate which exhibits minor scratches and wear. A thin white thread is visibly threaded through the needle, crossing over the presser foot's front portion. The upper portion of the machine, light grey in color, is partially visible, showing a dark, irregularly shaped aperture on its left side. In the background, a distinct, wavy black fiber rests on a lighter, slightly reflective surface, possibly part of the machine bed or surrounding workbench. Shadows are cast by the machine components, indicating a light source from the upper left. No human presence is depicted.
