The scene depicts an agricultural hillside in Machakos Central ward, Kenya, under a partly cloudy blue sky. In the immediate foreground, a dense accumulation of dry, brown tree branches and twigs rests on disturbed soil, interspersed with some green undergrowth. The midground features a steeply sloping cultivated field planted with rows of various green crops, primarily young maize (corn) plants and several taller, mature banana plants. In the background, ascending the hillside, are multiple structures. To the left, partially obscured by trees, are buildings with light-colored walls and light blue or grey roofs. To the right, a prominent stone-built structure with a dark grey roof is visible. A stone wall or terracing system is present along the hillside near these background buildings. Distant hills are visible on the horizon. No individuals are present.
