The image depicts a group of shanty houses made primarily from metal and wood. The structures are characterized by their simple, utilitarian design, with large windows and open spaces. The walls are constructed from corrugated metal sheets, which are commonly used in developing countries for housing due to their durability and cost-effectiveness. The houses appear to be situated in an urban area, as indicated by the presence of other buildings and infrastructure in the background. The overall scene suggests a low-income or informal settlement, typical of many developing countries.
