'Dollar-A-Day'

Los Angeles Times

A young clothing merchant sits next to piles of used clothing under the hot sun mid day at the Yaba Market, in Lagos, Nigeria. Clothing merchants sell used clothing illegally imported from the U.S. The markets rests on railroad tracks. (The train was on strike and not running.) The market is loud and chaotic.
