A construction site on open dry ground where workers lay grey granite stones along a paved edge. A woman in a red top and striped headscarf bends over a heap of stones, while another woman in a pink top and yellow skirt works nearby. Two men, one in a blue shirt and one in a yellow shirt, crouch and stand near a concrete curb edged in red, with power tools and an orange cable on the ground. A young boy in a dusty khaki shirt watches at right beside potted palms and black plant containers. Trees and a distant building sit in the hazy background.
