A woman sits on a stool next to a charcoal grill in Rafin Par, Nigeria. She is wearing a white t-shirt and a green and gold patterned skirt, with a purple and white patterned headscarf. Her hands are engaged in preparing corn on the cob, which is displayed on a grill over glowing embers. Several ears of corn are visible, some partially husked. Behind her, a wall made of concrete blocks and a dense cluster of tall, green cactus plants dominate the background. The sky above is a dusky blue. The ground is covered in loose soil and small stones.
