A photograph on a high-altitude arid plain beneath a clear sky with cumulus clouds and distant brown mountains. A long string of colourful Tibetan prayer flags, many faded and tattered, runs along the left side and across a cairn-lined roadside. A woman in an orange-red long garment with a leopard-print waist sash stoops at the edge of the tarmac road, her hand extended over a row of small stacked stones. A dark four-wheel-drive vehicle is parked at the right. One person is visible.
