Night photograph of a damaged single-storey house with a turquoise-painted front wall, its corrugated metal and thatched roof partly torn away and sagging over bamboo rafters. A bare bulb glows inside the doorway. Bicycles lean against the left wall, and scattered debris, a metal pot, a bucket and a brass vessel lie on the muddy ground in front. A small sapling stands at right beside an unfinished multi-storey building. No people are visible in the scene.
