The image depicts an active grape processing and drying operation in Bazar-e Panjva'i, Afghanistan. The scene is set under a rustic, open-sided shelter constructed from wooden poles and horizontal beams. The ground is packed earth. Numerous bundles of light green grapes are suspended from the overhead structure for drying. In the foreground and mid-ground, large quantities of light green grapes are piled in yellow and blue plastic crates and grey plastic bins. Two large, grey metal pots are on the ground; one contains a whitish liquid. Approximately ten individuals are visible. A central figure, possibly female, wearing a dark garment, a dark head covering, and bright pink rubber gloves, is kneeling and smiling towards the camera, positioned amongst piles of grapes. Their bare feet are visible. In the background, several male individuals are seated on the ground, surrounded by grapes and crates, engaged in sorting or preparation. One man in a light-colored garment stands near a drying rack in the left background. A red and white insulated water container is present among yellow crates in the right background. The overall scene indicates manual labor involved in agricultural processing.
