A photograph of an outdoor construction site on dry sandy ground with a large heap of cut grey granite blocks and loose stones in the foreground. Behind the stones, a line of people in white dhotis and white garments stands along a path, some holding up hands or objects, while women in colourful saris stand at the right edge near a green water hose. Palm trees and a cloudy sky sit in the background. The scene appears to be a ceremonial site preparation with devotees gathered.
