A photograph of an outdoor construction site at an ashram, with bare red-brown earth, heaps of gravel and red soil, and rows of concrete pillars and partly built cinder-block walls. A cluster of about twenty people in saffron and white clothing, some in orange robes and some in white dhotis and shirts, stand around a blue barrel near the middle of the site. Workers in lungis and shirts are scattered among them. A white vehicle and a few palm trees and a water tower sit in the hazy background. A small figure in orange stands atop a pillar on the left. The attribution to a specific person is uncertain from appearance alone.
