A photograph of a rough, overgrown site being cleared for construction, with a dirt path running through patchy grass and scrub. In the foreground, a bundle of thin metal rods lies along the ground. Three men are visible: two in the left foreground bending over the rods, one shirtless, and a figure on the right near a wooden frame, plus a small distant figure beside a mound of earth. Piles of dry branches, cut sticks and debris sit along the edges, with trees and bushes behind. No a person candidate is visible.
