A photograph of a person in an outdoor, tree-shaded setting digging into a mound of loose reddish-brown soil with a long-handled hoe. The central figure is bare-chested and wears a rust-orange dhoti and wrap, with a long brown rudraksha-style bead mala draped over the shoulders, and stands bent slightly forward with one hand on the hip. Around him, a group of onlookers stands watching: a woman in a teal sari, a woman in a cream and blue patterned top, a man in white, a woman in a green blouse and cream sari, and others partly hidden by foliage. Hanging vines and tree trunks surround the scene, and a green sapling grows beside the mound. A woman at right in a blue sari holds a small object. Count of visible people is more than five.
