A construction site photograph showing several concrete columns rising from a foundation pit, with protruding steel reinforcing rods at their tops and burlap-like sacking wrapped around their lower sections. In the background a worker in a light shirt and dark trousers bends over near a pile of sand, with cinder block walls, scattered debris and a red-roofed building beyond under a clear pale sky.

A photo of an outdoor construction site at a temple foundation in Bidadi. Rows of exposed rebar columns rise from a pit of wet red-brown earth, wrapped at their bases in brown cloth or formwork and set on concrete footings. Shallow puddles of muddy water reflect the columns, and wooden planks and scattered debris lie across the ground. Dirt mounds, a blue tarpaulin and green trees line the background. One lone worker in a white shirt and dark trousers stands at the far left, near the edge of the pit. No ritual activity is visible.2009-07-09A photograph of an outdoor construction site at a temple foundation in a dry, open area.
