The image shows an elderly African woman standing in front of a group of tents in a desert-like area. She is wearing a colorful shawl with a floral pattern and a headscarf covering her head. The woman is holding a plastic bag in her hand and appears to be waving to the camera. The tents are made of tarpaulin and are scattered around the area. The sky is cloudy and the ground is covered in dry grass and shrubs. The overall mood of the image is bleak and desolate.
