The scene depicts a roadside stall in Kandahar, Afghanistan, under a clear blue sky with minimal distant clouds. In the foreground, an uneven, dusty patch of ground displays several pairs of sandals. Centrally, a man with a dark beard, wearing a light-tan shalwar kameez and a light-colored skullcap, sits barefoot and cross-legged on the ground, his hands clasped in front of him, looking towards the right of the frame. To his left and slightly behind him, another man in darker attire and a skullcap sits, partially obscured by shadow, appearing to look downwards. A third individual, mostly out of frame on the far left, shows a maroon garment. The primary structure is a makeshift stall on the left, covered by a white, weathered tarp roof. Its interior reveals shelves stocked with various packaged snacks, bottled drinks, and other small consumer goods. A sturdy wooden pole stands vertically in front of the stall, from which several plastic bags containing items are suspended. To the right of the stall, a large, open-mesh metal grid acts as a display or barrier, featuring clear plastic bottles and a cluster of colorful, spherical objects hanging from it. A white surface behind this grid displays faint blue graffiti.
