This is a black and white photograph featuring a mannequin positioned on a manhole cover in the middle of a city street. The mannequin is wearing a fringed garment that drapes around its form. It stands out against the urban backdrop, which includes a row of buildings lining the street, cars parked along the side, and another car approaching in the distance. The lighting on the mannequin gives it an almost ethereal quality against the more muted tones of the surrounding cityscape. The image has an artistic and slightly surreal atmosphere, challenging the viewer's expectations of an ordinary city scene.

This is a striking black and white street photograph, artistically composed with a figure standing on what appears to be a manhole cover in an urban setting. The subject is wearing a fringed shawl or poncho with tassels and a head covering, creating an elegant silhouette against the city backdrop. The street scene includes parked cars and buildings in the background, slightly out of focus, which creates depth in the composition. The lighting and positioning make it appear as though the subject is emerging from or standing on a glowing circle in the street. The photograph has a dreamy, almost theatrical quality despite being taken in an everyday urban environment. The contrast between the sharp focus of the subject and the softer background elements makes for a compelling artistic photograph.

The image depicts a woman standing in the middle of a city street, with a manhole cover serving as her base. She is wrapped in a blanket and appears to be floating above the ground.

The woman is positioned in the center of the image, with her feet resting on the manhole cover. She is wearing a headscarf and has a blanket draped over her shoulders, with the ends hanging down to her knees. Her legs are bare, and she appears to be standing on the manhole cover without any visible support.

The background of the image shows a city street lined with buildings and cars. The street is empty, except for the woman standing in the middle. The overall atmosphere of the image is surreal and dreamlike, with the woman's unusual pose and the lack of context creating a sense of mystery and intrigue.

The image is in black and white, which adds to its moody and atmospheric quality. The use of a manhole cover as a base for the woman's pose creates a sense of disorientation and confusion, drawing the viewer's attention to the unusual scene unfolding before them. Overall, the image is a thought-provoking and visually striking representation of a woman in a strange and unexpected situation.
