A street-level photograph captures a bustling market scene in Aba, Abia, Nigeria, under an overcast sky. In the foreground, a woman with short, dark hair and light brown skin is depicted from the mid-torso up, facing right and looking slightly upwards. She wears a sheer, long-sleeved black top with glitter, over a solid dark undergarment, red pants, small gold-colored hoop earrings, and a thin gold-colored necklace. A black leather shoulder bag with gold-colored hardware and a triangular emblem on its clasp hangs across her body. Behind her, another individual in a blue and white patterned dress carries a large black plastic bag, bearing the text "WELCOME HOME," on their head. To the far left, a person wearing an orange top is partially visible. The immediate ground consists of a grey paved surface, likely a road or wide pathway. To the right, a market stall is set up alongside a weathered concrete wall. A woman in a pink, purple, and yellow patterned dress is seated on a low wooden stool, sorting items in a red plastic basin placed on another wooden stool. Adjacent stools display produce: one holds green, spiky fruits, and another contains numerous small, orange-brown spherical fruits. Woven baskets are visible behind the seated vendor, and a pair of pink sandals rests on the ground near the display. In the background, further market activity is suggested by additional stalls and people. Above the market area and wall, a large, modern advertising billboard structure is visible, and buildings with corrugated roofs and barbed wire are present in the distance.
