A photograph of an outdoor construction site under a pale overcast sky. Piles of cut grey granite blocks and stone chips lie on reddish-brown sand and earth. A tall grey stone linga stands on a low brick and concrete base in the middle distance, surrounded by mounds of sand and scattered stone slabs. Palm trees and leafy trees line the flat horizon. No people are clearly visible; a tiny figure may be near the base. The site is a work in progress, so the scene shows no ritual activity.
