The image depicts an outdoor, arid environment in Nyangi Milimba, Democratic Republic of the Congo, characterized by reddish-brown, dry earth. Sparse, light-colored dry grass and scattered organic debris, including areas of dark charring, are visible across the ground. The terrain is uneven, with depressions and a prominent exposed root system on the right. Eight individuals, predominantly children, are present. In the immediate foreground, a child wearing a horizontal yellow and green striped shirt and light shorts sits in a shallow depression, facing away from the camera, with dirt visible on their hands and arms. To their left, another child, facing away, squats in a solid blue garment near a small yellow toy truck. To their right, a third child, in a light long-sleeved shirt and light cropped trousers with Crocs-style footwear, is depicted in motion, stepping away from the camera. In the midground, a child stands, facing left, wearing a light, possibly tie-dye, short-sleeved shirt and light blue shorts. This child holds a small, red, rectangular object in their outstretched right hand. Further right in the midground, another child, clad in a dark top and light trousers, holds a reddish-brown object, possibly a chicken, against their left side. An older individual, wearing a light blue denim jacket and dark trousers, stands further back on the right. In the background, on a flatter expanse of ground, a child wearing a dark patterned shirt and shorts stands on the left. Towards the center-right background, an individual's legs are visible mid-stride near a light-colored ball, suggesting play. A small, light-colored animal, possibly a goat or dog, is also present near the ball in the background. A discarded orange plastic bottle lies on the ground in the mid-right.
