A female individual, viewed from behind, is depicted walking on a paved road in Lokoja, Nigeria. She is balancing a large, dark-colored basin on her head, which is filled with numerous long-stemmed brooms fanning outward, and centrally located bundles of light-colored, possibly straw-like material, along with a dark, amorphous object. A slender, vertical stick protrudes from the top of the load. The individual is wearing a dark top, possibly incorporating a head covering, and a multi-patterned skirt or wrapper predominantly blue and brown. Her right arm is raised, supporting the load, while her left arm hangs at her side. The environment consists of a two-lane asphalt road. In the mid-ground, two additional individuals are walking away from the camera, and a white, light commercial vehicle (pickup truck or minivan) is driving in the same direction. To the right of the road, a small, open-air vendor stall or table is visible with at least one person seated behind it. Adjacent to the road, green vegetation, including grass and weeds, lines the pathway, bordered by a concrete gutter or drain. Beyond the vegetation, various single-story buildings with corrugated metal roofs are visible. The building immediately to the right exhibits faded yellow/beige walls with noticeable weathering and discoloration. The sky overhead is overcast, indicating diffused light conditions. In the distant background, several other buildings are visible, along with a prominent palm tree.
