Description

This image shows a group of six children gathered and posing beside a gas pumping station and beneath a clothesline at a village gas station. Five of the children are standing on a platform among the blue clothing that is hanging from the clothesline and one child is one the ground below the platform with a metal bucket hanging from the crook of his elbow. Most of the children are smiling. The gas pump is a big yellow metal box with black tubing and a glass tube on top.
