A muddy mountain road in a green Himalayan valley on a grey, overcast day. A green steel truss bridge spans the river at left-centre, with a small shrine structure and a white temple dome on the hillside beyond. Two men in orange and saffron rain ponchos stand on the road; one wears an orange poncho over orange clothing and the other a pink-red poncho with white trousers, holding a small bag. A dog stands near them. A man in a blue sweater stands at right beside a white jeep, and a woman in a red sari stands near a small shelter. A brown mule stands at left by a roadside stall, and a white van with people inside is parked beside a blue utility box.
