An elevated, slightly tilted view captures a waterfront scene in Ebute-Metta, Nigeria

An elevated, slightly tilted view captures a waterfront scene in Ebute-Metta, Nigeria. The upper portion of the frame features a pale blue sky with scattered grey and white cumulus clouds, indicative of an overcast or hazy condition. The lower portion displays a calm, dark blue-grey body of water, likely a lagoon. Along the distant horizon, a dense settlement of stilt houses, constructed from various materials including wood and corrugated iron, extends across the water's surface. Behind these aquatic structures, a land-based urban environment is discernible, featuring multiple buildings and a prominent tall power transmission tower. Atmospheric haze reduces the clarity of distant elements. In the mid-ground on the water, a long, narrow wooden boat is visible, occupied by one individual appearing to operate it. The immediate foreground is dominated by a grey concrete bridge barrier topped with a silver-colored two-bar metallic handrail.
