The image presents an outdoor winter market scene located at the former EXPO-2017 grounds in Astana, Kazakhstan. The spherical Nur-Alem Pavilion is discernible in the distant background. A cleared pathway, partially covered in compacted snow and ice, extends from the foreground towards the background, flanked by market stalls. On the left side of the path, a series of identical structures with prominent red canopies are visible. These stalls feature large Coca-Cola branded posters and advertisements, some in Cyrillic script. Decorative banners or flags are attached to the canopies. Snow is accumulated in mounds along the base of these stalls. Overhead, multiple strands of string lights with individual bulbs are suspended across the pathway, creating an illuminated canopy. The sun is low in the sky, positioned near the center-right, generating significant lens flare and casting long, distinct shadows of people and structures onto the path. On the right side of the path, additional market structures, some appearing as wooden booths, are present. These also display Coca-Cola branding and elements resembling traditional Kazakh patterns. A tall, grey streetlamp stands on the right. A group of six individuals is observed walking away from the camera down the pathway, their backs to the viewer. They appear to be dressed in winter attire, including coats and hats, and their long shadows stretch ahead of them. The ground is consistently covered in snow outside the main path. The sky is clear and bright blue.
