No identifiable a person is shown.2006-10-06December 12 20062006-12-12December 12 20062006-12-12 +1 copiesA photograph of an ashram construction site on dusty ground lined with palm trees. A steel-frame roof structure is being built, with a worker in a dark top climbing its rafters and a man in white clothing standing to the left beside stacked corrugated sheets. Two people in casual clothes walk along the sandy path in the middle distance, and another figure in white stands at right near piled timber. A low white wall, a cement-coloured building with a terracotta roof and a thatched hut lie beyond. No ritual or event is visible, only building work.2007-05-25 +1 copiesA photo of an outdoor construction site at an ashram-like compound. A bare-chested young man in orange-brown shorts climbs a tall bamboo and rope frame that forms a pitched-roof shelter, with a second worker partly visible inside the frame. A man in a white dhoti and shirt stands at left holding his arm up, near a blue barrel and a corrugated sheet. Two men in plain shirts and trousers walk on sandy ground at right. Palm fronds frame the left edge, and a cream two-storey building with terracotta roof and landscaped shrubs sits in the background under a pale sky.2007-05-25 +1 copiesA photograph of an outdoor bamboo scaffolding frame under construction on a dusty ground at an ashram compound. Several bamboo poles form a rectangular grid of horizontal and vertical beams. Two workers stand on the upper bamboo cross-members near the left, one in a light shirt and one in pale clothing. A man in a white shirt and dark lungi stands at the left holding a bamboo pole, and another person in light clothing stands at the right near the frame. Behind them are a white building with a thatched roof and blue doors, a water tower, palm trees and leafy trees under a cloudy sky. Blue barrels and scattered bamboo pieces lie on the ground.2007-05-21A photograph of a bamboo scaffold frame under construction on dusty ground at an ashram site. Three workers are visible: one standing on the top bamboo crossbar at left in a plaid shirt, one in the middle near the top, and one at right in white dhoti and white shirt with a red cloth on his head, working near a blue plastic barrel. Palm trees, a thatched-roof white building with blue windows, stacked corrugated sheets at left and scattered bamboo poles fill the scene.2007-05-21A photograph of an open-sided thatched structure under construction at an outdoor site. A long, low roof of dried straw or thatch rests on a framework of bamboo poles and wooden posts, with diagonal bracing poles leaning against the sides. Beneath the roof, stacked metal pipes or rods lie on crossbeams above a concrete plinth with red earth exposed inside its perimeter. Palm trees and a leafy branch frame the scene, and a small blue structure appears in the background. No people are visible.2007-06-05December 12 20092009-12-12September 22 20092009-09-22A photograph of an open thatched pavilion under construction at an ashram site under a clear blue sky. Bamboo poles and a lattice of wooden beams support a steep palm-thatched roof. A large circular portrait of a saffron-robed figure with a red head wrap is mounted on the thatch above the entrance. Inside, a worker in a checked shirt stands among the poles, and a person in white with an orange shawl stands at the right edge. Palm trees, green shrubs and a white building with a red roof appear in the background, with construction materials stacked on the ground at left.2007-05-27
