The scene depicts an outdoor street-level view in Ifite-Awka, Nigeria. A dark-skinned individual, appearing female, is centered in the foreground, walking towards the viewer on an unpaved dirt path. She wears a short-sleeved pink top, a dark brown or olive green skirt with a ruffled hem, and multiple beaded necklaces (red, blue, yellow, white). She balances a light-colored, flat rectangular tray filled with numerous small, yellow-wrapped items on her head. Her right hand appears to hold a small, light-colored object, and her left hand is slightly open. To the immediate left and slightly behind the main subject, a child wearing a light-colored striped t-shirt and shorts is partially visible, also walking along the path. Further in the background on the left, a third individual in a red top is partially visible amidst dense green foliage. Along the right side of the image, a light-colored concrete or plastered wall extends into the background. Several PVC pipes protrude from this wall: one blue pipe horizontally at a higher level, and multiple white elbow-joint pipes at lower levels. Green grass grows along the base of the wall. Barbed wire is visible along the top edge of the wall in the upper right background. A dark-colored roof is partially visible above the wall in the distance. The lighting suggests daytime.
