A construction site photograph of a half-built structure of grey concrete block walls with a sunken pit. A man in a checked head towel, pale striped shirt and light trousers stands at the edge of the pit, one hand resting on a wooden plank ledge. Rough wooden poles and logs are lashed together overhead with rope, and loose stone and rubble lie on the pit floor. Dirt mounds sit outside the wall openings. No religious ritual or a person presence is visible.

Low-angle photo looking up a narrow construction shaft between unfinished concrete block walls under an overcast sky. Two workers are visible on the left: one in a checked short-sleeved shirt and light trousers climbs a bundle of vertical steel rebar, and a second person in a grey shirt and dark trousers stands just below him. At the top right, a third figure in a dark cap is partly visible above the wall edge, beside exposed rebar. A wooden plank rests against the right wall, a coil of yellow cable hangs from a nail, and a timber beam crosses the shaft. No a person candidate is visible, and the scene shows only ordinary building work.2009-10-31A construction site with grey concrete block walls being built on a stone foundation.
