Outdoor photograph on bare dusty ground at a construction site. Three men bend forward over a long grey granite slab, one in a teal shirt and blue-and-white checked lungi, one in a grey-striped shirt and checked lungi, and a boy in blue shorts and a yellow-and-red top at the right. A small oil lamp with a lit flame sits beside the stone, with a metal cup, an incense or matchbox-like packet, and small offerings such as flower petals or fruit on the slab. A fourth person stands partially visible at the left edge, and a row of white wash basins appears in the background.

Photograph of a stone-yard construction site under an open shed where granite slabs and blocks lie on bare earth. In the foreground a man in a brown checked shirt and checked lungi kneels beside a long polished granite slab, placing green leaves on it. Two younger men in teal shirts and checked lungis stand behind him, and a partially visible figure stands further back. A plastic water bottle sits at right, with a brick wall and red painted boundary behind.
