An outdoor market scene in Gundigan Village, Afghanistan, is depicted under clear daylight. An elderly man with a long white beard and a dark turban sits on a yellow plastic stool in the right foreground, wearing a dark brown jacket and trousers. He looks to his left, appearing to rest. To the immediate left of his stool, a small glass cup containing a light-brown liquid is on the ground. In the central foreground, a silver thermal carafe with a black lid and handle, featuring a floral etching, rests on the concrete surface. Dominating the left and center-left of the image are substantial piles of red onions, individually packed in red mesh bags with red ties. These bags are stacked high, suggesting they are on a vehicle or cart partially visible behind them. In the midground, behind the seated man, is a makeshift market stall with a beige tarp roof supported by poles. Underneath this tarp, numerous large, light-colored gourds or squashes are arranged on a wooden platform. Further left, additional produce is visible in another stall. The ground transitions from concrete in the foreground to packed dirt and gravel in the midground and background. In the background, low-rise, light-colored buildings with flat roofs are visible, along with wooden utility poles and overhead power lines. The sky is bright blue and clear, and strong sunlight casts distinct shadows.
