An overhead shot captures a man intently repairing a black slide sandal. He is seated outdoors against a textured, light brown wall with visible cracks and stains. The man wears a dark t-shirt with red stripes on the shoulders, an Adidas logo (three triangles), and the text "TeamViewer" on the front. He also wears dark trousers and a dark baseball cap, which obscures his face as he looks down at his work. In his hands, he holds small tools, including a pair of red-handled pliers or snips, and is meticulously working on the sole or strap of the black slide sandal, which rests on a piece of patterned fabric on his lap. Another grey sandal is partially visible on his right foot. To his left, there is a dark-colored basket or container filled with various materials, including rolled sheets of dark rubber, likely for shoe soles, and other tools. The ground around him is dark earth. The scene depicts a street-side cobbler or shoemaker engaged in his craft during daylight hours in Obosi, Nigeria.
