A construction site with excavated red-earth trenches and foundation pits for a temple at an outdoor location with palm trees. Many people in orange and white clothing move across the ground: some in saffron or orange robes, others in white dhotis and shirts, and several labourers in checked shirts and lungis work with tools and wheelbarrow-like equipment. Piles of sand and stone blocks lie around, a tall bamboo scaffold stands at left, and a small red flag flies on it. Several people stand near a white vehicle in the background, with a small brick building beyond the trees.

Many people stand and work across the site: a figure in a flowing saffron-orange robe with a shawl stands at centre facing away, while others in white dhotis and white shirts, some with orange shawls, stand nearby. Workers in lungis and loose shirts dig and carry materials, and a man crouches at the lower right. Trees, a utility pole with a floodlight, a water tank on a metal stand and stacked bricks frame the scene. The figure in orange cannot be identified by appearance here, so the candidate is uncertain.2006-12-09December 12 20062006-12-12 +1 copies
