Outdoor construction site on flat brown earth with rows of red bricks laid out in neat lines. Many people in white ritual clothing, mostly white dhotis and shirts with some women in white saris with red borders, are working, bending over bricks and walking among the rows. A man in a checked shirt and dhoti stands in the center. White pennant flags are strung across the top, with palm trees, a power pylon and distant hills behind a green treeline under overcast sky.
