A photograph of an overgrown open field with dry grass in the foreground and dense green trees behind it under a pale, washed-out sky. Two small grey gravel or stone heaps sit on the left, and a cleared, excavated patch of reddish-brown earth runs across the middle. Several men in plain light shirts, lungis and a checked shirt stand and sit among the bare ground, with two yellow buckets near them. No deity, ritual, procession or a person candidate is visible.
