The image depicts an outdoor gathering of individuals, predominantly men and boys, seated on chairs arranged in rows in Mandisar, Afghanistan. The scene is illuminated by bright daylight under a clear blue sky. The ground is covered with colorful, striped, and patterned mats. In the foreground, from left to right, a partially visible individual in dark and white clothing is present. Next, a man with a dark head covering and beard is seen in profile, looking towards the right. Adjacent to him, a man with a dark beard and a light-colored cap wears dark blue and brown clothing, holding a string of dark prayer beads with red accents in his right hand. His bare feet rest on a patterned cushion. A young boy sits to his right. Further back, rows of men and boys are visible, all facing generally towards the right side of the frame, suggesting attention directed at an unseen focal point. Most individuals are dressed in traditional attire. The background features a tall, light-colored concrete wall, possibly a perimeter barrier. Text, likely in Dari or Pashto, is visible painted on the wall. Above the wall, two white flags, possibly bearing symbols or text, are mounted on poles. Shadows are cast by the seated individuals and chairs onto the colorful mats. Various sandals and slippers are visible on the ground between the rows of chairs.
