Two men kneel on dusty red earth shaping a long mud or clay form laid on a grey concrete slab. The man on the left wears a white striped shirt and light trousers and presses clay with his hand. The younger man on the right wears a grey striped shirt and checked lungi and smooths the clay along its length. A yellow bucket, red bricks, a blue-handled hacksaw and scattered stone chips lie nearby, with rubble and a small fire residue in the background. No deity or a person depiction is visibly identifiable in the scene, and the pictured activity is sculpting work rather than satsang or ritual.2013-06-05October 19 20132013-10-19November 29 20132013-11-29December 19 20062006-12-19June 05 20132013-06-05A photograph of a construction site at an outdoor compound. A flight of concrete steps made of grey blocks leads up toward a higher level, with unfinished grey concrete surface on the top steps. Two men in work clothes are bent over at the base of the steps, one in a light teal shirt and dark trousers, the other in a white shirt, apparently working on the stonework. A white wall with red and white horizontal stripes stands to the right beside a rough stone pillar. A corrugated metal roofed shed is on the left, with a blue plastic drum, scattered bricks and rubble, and a white plastic chair. A large leafy tree stands behind, under a clear blue sky.2007-05-19December 30 20082008-12-30November 04 20142014-11-04A worker in a white shirt and dark blue trousers leans over a half-built wall of pale grey concrete blocks, spreading mortar with a trowel on a flat concrete site. A shallow metal bowl of wet mortar sits on the wall's top edge. Behind him a second worker in a red-and-white striped shirt sits by the bowl, and a third person in white crouches further back among unfinished concrete buildings with empty window openings. A hessian sack hangs on a pillar at left, and water hoses run across the wet floor.2010-02-10August 23 20162016-08-23An outdoor excavation site beneath a large banyan tree with aerial prop roots. Several workers dig trenches in reddish-brown soil, one crouching at the edge of a stone-lined channel and another bending over the trench, while stone blocks and metal pans of sifted soil sit along the ditch. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands at right, watching. Beyond, a shrine niche painted pink holds a deity murti with garlands and a red cloth, and iron railings line the walkway. A white plastic bag lies on the ground at right.2014-11-04December 15 20092009-12-15
