An upward-angled view captures a narrow, concrete alleyway in Stone Town, Zanzibar, Tanzania, bordered by structures undergoing apparent construction or renovation. On the left, a tall, weathered barrier of vertically corrugated blue metal sheeting extends into the foreground. Above this barrier, a torn, reddish-orange tarp hangs loosely, partially obscuring the sky. On the right, a multi-story building with a faded, reddish-pink facade features a small window, an external air conditioning unit, a wall-mounted lamp, and an electrical junction box, all accompanied by numerous tangled electrical wires. Further down the alley, this building transitions to a lighter, possibly white, color. Two adult males are walking away from the viewer down the alley. The first male, closer to the viewer, wears a white t-shirt, blue denim shorts, and black shoes, with a black messenger bag across his chest. The second male, further ahead, wears a dark plaid long-sleeved shirt and dark trousers. The concrete ground of the alley exhibits dirt and debris along its edges. In the far background on the right, an old wooden utility cart with a single visible wheel leans against the building. A sliver of clear sky is visible overhead between the towering structures.
