A nighttime outdoor photograph of a group of people in white ritual clothing walking across a reddish-brown earthen ground, some bending forward as if working or inspecting the soil. A bright white floodlight on a pole illuminates the scene from the back right. One figure at the front left wears an orange-saffron shawl over white clothes, standing apart from the others. Behind them stands a row of more white-clad people, and to the far right a small bonfire glows beside several figures. Debris and dark mounds fill the left foreground. The setting appears to be an open field at night.
