Outdoor construction work on a paved site with palm trees and a scaffold behind. Several labourers work around a large heap of grey wet cement or concrete mix spread on the ground, with torn cement bags nearby. A man in a red knit cap and checked shirt on the left, a man in a striped sweater and white turban on the right, and others in lungis and light shirts shovel and spread the mix with tools. Tall lamp posts and a blue barrel sit in the background. No ritual, discourse or a person presence is visible.

Workers at an outdoor construction site spread wet concrete over a gravel base. In the foreground, a man in a light-coloured shirt and orange head wrap bends forward, while a man in a green-and-white checked head cloth and a man in a khaki shirt and white dhoti shovel and level the grey mix. Piles of sand and crushed stone sit on the right, and more workers in white shirts and dhotis carry materials in the background. A wooden stake and a hose lie on the ground.

Construction labourers work on a bare dirt site beside a cinderblock wall. A man in a blue cap and white shirt crouches and digs into the soil with a tool. Beside him, a man in a green-and-yellow shirt and blue shorts pushes a grey wheelbarrow, and a man in white dhoti and white shirt with a white turban stands behind a second orange wheelbarrow. Iron rods lie on the ground at lower left, and bags of debris sit in the background. No a person candidate is visible.

A construction site outdoors where workers are mixing mortar on bare earth beside a small concrete structure. A man in a white shirt, grey trousers and a green head cloth pours cement from a blue woven sack onto a heap of reddish sand. Beside him a worker in a purple checked top, green lungi and white head wrap bends over the pile with gloved hands. On the right an older man in a cream shirt and blue-striped dhoti stands watching, and another person in an orange shirt stands further back. A black hose runs across the ground, and white buildings, trees and a red metal railing sit in the background. Stacked concrete blocks lean against a wooden frame at right.

A photograph of four men laying stone paving on a dirt construction site outdoors. A man in a pink shirt and checked lungi bends forward holding a long-handled tool to press cement between grey stone slabs. Beside him a man in a cream shirt and striped lungi stands watching, and an older man in a checked shirt and white head cloth crouches to set a large pale stone slab with a blue bucket beside him. A man in a yellow striped shirt helps guide the slab, and an older man in a light blue shirt and dark trousers stands at right. Behind them stand a shed, a red container and banana plants, with stacked stone blocks scattered across the ground.
