A worker on an aluminium stepladder drills into a textured pale pink wall with a black corded hand drill. He wears a blue short-sleeved shirt and an orange wristband on his right arm. Beside him a white PVC pipe runs vertically, with red and blue electrical wires hanging near a wall light fixture. The photograph is warmly lit and taken from below, showing a construction or electrical installation job in progress.

A photograph of an unfinished interior under construction, with bare white plastered walls and a concrete floor strewn with wires, tools, sand piles and loose debris. A man in a blue short-sleeved shirt and khaki trousers stands on a concrete block, working on an electrical panel mounted on the wall with a bundle of coloured wires. Three other men are crouched or seated in the background near sacks and sand heaps. Green and white electrical boxes and coiled cables lie on the floor in the foreground. No ritual, a person or devotional activity is visible.

A photograph of a construction worker chiselling into a pink-painted concrete wall beside a white metal scaffold frame. He wears an orange and light blue striped short-sleeved shirt and holds a metal chisel in one hand while striking it with a hammer held in the other. Exposed grey mortar and a red electrical conduit run along the wall, with a black and yellow hose and pipes at the left edge. A white awning sits at the top of the frame. No ritual, deity or a person depiction is visible.

A man in a white kurta and saffron-orange dhoti sits on a steel roof truss under a corrugated metal ceiling, working near a floodlight. He is barefoot and wears a thin cord necklace, appearing to adjust or fix the light fixture. Thin cables run along the frame. No ritual or ceremony is visible.

A construction site photo of an orange-red block wall with window openings and a corrugated metal roof frame. Three workers are on the building: one in a red-orange safety vest and dark clothes sits on the roof crouching over wiring, another in a pink shirt and light trousers sits on the roof ledge, and a younger worker in a peach shirt and khaki trousers stands on a metal stepladder against the wall. Loose electrical wires hang from the roof beams and a white street lamp is mounted on the wall.

A worker in a light blue striped shirt smooths a wall with a red-handed trowel, applying a fine grey-brown plaster. Only his back, shoulder and hands are visible, with a bangle on one wrist. A partially visible person in white stands at the upper left edge. On the right, a recessed carved stone or plaque sits in the wall. The scene shows construction work in progress rather than a ritual event, and no a person candidate is visibly present.

A worker in a pink shirt, blue jeans, orange work gloves and a blue cap stands on a step inside an unfinished room, reaching up with a trowel to plaster the upper part of a grey-brown wall near the ceiling. The walls are rough and partly plastered, and a window opening is visible on the right with another person partly visible at its edge. No a person candidate is visible; the scene shows construction work at the ashram.

Blue scaffolding and wooden planks frame the right side of the image.
