In an open-air market in Kandahar, Afghanistan, an elderly man with a long white beard and a dark turban sits cross-legged on a white fabric sheet. He wears a light-colored tunic and a dark brown checkered vest. His right hand is positioned over a pile of light brown raisins spread directly on the sheet in front of him, with another large pile to his left. Several white plastic crates are stacked behind him. To his right and further back, another individual with a dark head covering is partially visible, and further left, a person wearing a white headscarf is also seated amidst market goods and additional white crates. The background features a large, industrial-style covered structure, multiple shipping containers, and various stacked items. Beyond these structures, a range of arid, rocky mountains stretches under an overcast sky. The ground throughout the market appears dusty.
