This image captures a close-up of a group of Black individuals outdoors in Jos, Nigeria, engaged in what appears to be a cultural or ceremonial gathering. The central figure, an adult male with a bald or closely shaved head, is actively blowing into a dark, curved animal horn, which he holds with both hands. He wears a short-sleeved, collared shirt patterned with vertical black, white, and teal stripes. His face displays prominent scarification marks, specifically three vertical lines on his left cheek and two on his right, and his expression is concentrated. A reddish mark is visible on his right forearm. In the background, to the left, another male in a similar striped shirt has sunglasses perched on his head. Behind him, an individual wears an elaborate white headpiece and necklace, both adorned with cowrie shells. To the right of the central figure, another male wears a brown and tan patterned cap. In the right mid-ground, a male wearing a dark cap and a grey shirt with a dark floral pattern holds a small, woven, cylindrical object with attached straps. Further back on the right, another male in a dark jacket over a striped shirt is partially visible. The environment consists of reddish-brown earth, a section of a traditional circular hut with a thatched roof visible on the far left, and green foliage in the upper background. The scene is illuminated by bright, natural daylight.
