A Balinese woman in a blue blouse and yellow skirt buys pieces of raw chicken from another woman at an outdoor market.
The vendor, wearing a red jacket and a printed cloth around her hair, weighs the chicken pieces with a kilogram balance scale. A set of cylindrical brass weights are used to determine the weight of chicken being sold. A large red basin of chicken pieces rests on a table beside the vendor.
In the background a small boy wearing a yellow T-shirt is eating a snack from a green leaf wrapper.
