An outdoor scene in Nakhonay, Afghanistan, depicts a construction or excavation site under a clear blue sky. In the foreground, a man of apparent South Asian or Middle Eastern descent stands center-right, facing the viewer with a slight smile. He wears a light brown or tan shalwar kameez and dark sandals, holding a shovel vertically in the dirt with his left hand resting on its handle. To his left, a grey metal wheelbarrow is positioned, filled with excavated soil and small rocks. Another shovel, with a wooden handle, is partially visible to the left, pointed towards the wheelbarrow. Large mounds of excavated earth and gravel dominate the midground. To the right, a stack of precast concrete elements is visible near a dark, flat linear construction. In the background, beyond the excavation, a dirt road features a motorcycle carrying two individuals and a yellow auto-rickshaw in the distance. Further back, various low-rise structures, including brick walls and mud-brick buildings, are present. Sparse trees with some fall foliage are also visible. The ground is dry, uneven soil and gravel.
