A yellow JCB backhoe loader with a flat front bucket drives along a dirt track through a cyclone-damaged village. The machine has a banner draped on its front showing a portrait and text, and the cab reads Earth Movers on its side. Bare, storm-stripped trees and a leaning palm line the road. A man in white shirt and trousers stands at left holding a camera, a second man in white stands near the middle, and several people in light clothing stand beside parked motorbikes and white cars. A blue barrel and a chain-link fence with orange posts sit at right.
