This is a black and white photograph taken at a flea-market. The image shows a man at center in a light colored jacket, plaid pants, and a knit cap. A second man appears at far right wearing dark pants, a button down shirt, and a plaid coat. Both men turn toward a human figure at center left that is kneeling on the ground and covered in a plastic bag.
