The image displays a diagonally oriented street scene in Cotonou, Benin, captured under a blue sky with scattered white clouds. On the left side, a series of multi-story buildings line the road, some with commercial facades; a sign partially visible on one building reads "MARCHE." The immediate foreground on the left features a concrete sidewalk, transitioning to a patterned section of interlocking pavers further down the street. The main road is asphalt, with multiple long shadows extending across it, suggesting a low sun angle. Vehicular presence includes several parked cars along the right side and at least one motorcycle with a visible rider actively moving in the mid-ground. Dense-foliaged trees line the right side of the thoroughfare. A partial view of a person's upper left arm or shoulder is visible in the extreme top-left corner of the frame.
