A large outdoor community kitchen under striped blue, green and white tarpaulin canopies at dusk. Many large aluminium cooking pots sit on metal stands and charcoal or gas burners, with steam rising from several of them. Several workers in white and red-trimmed clothing move between the pots, and fluorescent tube lights hang from the canopy poles. Stacked steel plates and metal vessels lie at the lower left. The scene looks like food preparation for mass annadhan, though no people are close enough to be clearly identified.
