A group of volunteers, mostly women in white and cream saris and salwar kameez, climbs a rocky hillside of large grey boulders and gravel under a pale sky with a few green trees. A man in a white shirt on the left reaches down to hand a stone upward, while a woman in a white sari and a woman in a red kurta help carry and pass rocks. An older woman in a white sari with a light shawl stands on the slope at right. Their activity suggests a shramadana-style stone-clearing or construction task at an outdoor site. No ritual, deity or figure resembling a person is visible.

The woman on the right wears a white sari with teal trim, a rudraksha-style beaded mala and gold earrings, and carries a tray of stones. Behind them, other people in white, red and yellow saris and a man in a light shirt are moving among the rocks, and a few houses and power poles sit in the distance.2008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20
