The image depicts a slum area in a city, characterized by several shacks or huts made of wood and plastic materials. The structures are closely packed together, with some shacks having tarps or sheets hanging over their entrances. The area is bordered by a narrow river or canal, which appears to be polluted or contaminated, evidenced by the presence of greenish-brown water. In the background, there are modern buildings with glass windows and balconies, suggesting that this area is located in an urban setting. The overall scene suggests a contrast between the poverty-stricken slums and the modernity of the surrounding environment.
