Two men in saffron-orange garments walk across a bare, excavated earth site. The man on the left wears a red-orange shirt with an orange dhoti and dark shoes; the man on the right wears an orange shawl wrapped over an orange dhoti, with a shaved-or-short head and bare feet. A yellow excavator sits behind them beside a deep pit, with palm trees and a distant tree line under a pale sky. Tire tracks and mud ridges mark the ground, consistent with pond or construction work in progress.
