A worker in a blue t-shirt and khaki trousers crouches on a concrete floor beside a half-built wall, reaching to set a blue spirit level or tool against a wooden door frame. A round metal tray of mortar, a trowel, a hammer and loose bricks lie nearby. White tiled wall panels rise on the right in an unfinished construction interior.

A photograph of a construction worker sitting cross-legged on a freshly poured concrete rooftop, barefoot, working with a hammer and chisel on a metal rod. He wears a white cap with blue stripes, a brown and beige plaid short-sleeved shirt, and grey trousers rolled at the ankles. Pale slippers and a red-bristled brush lie on the concrete beside him, and puddles reflect the light on the wet surface. No a person candidate is visible.

A man in a blue collared shirt and grey trousers crouches on a concrete floor beside a light wooden post, drilling into its base with a green power drill. Bare plaster walls and loose grey debris surround him, with black cables running along the floor at right. No ritual, a person candidate or devotional setting is visible.

A man in a white and blue striped polo shirt and maroon lungi squats barefoot on a dusty floor, chiselling a plank with a wooden mallet and chisel. Wood shavings and offcuts surround him, with stacked timber and tools on the ground, a plastic bag, and a red and navy backpack against a concrete wall. A small orange thread is tied on his wrist. The scene reads as a workshop carpentry task.

A man sits cross-legged on bare red-brown earth, working on a thin metal sheet laid on the ground. He wears a white and light-blue striped short-sleeved shirt and dark checked lungi, with a red thread on his wrist. He holds a small hammer in one hand and a chisel-like tool in the other, striking the sheet with focus. Patchy green grass and a small pile of loose soil are visible at the top right, with a white container at the edge. No deity, a person candidate, or ritual setting is shown.
