Outdoor construction site where workers lay granite stone blocks in a long, narrow trench to form a retaining wall along a curved, red-edged concrete walkway. A woman in a white-and-blue striped top and green skirt stands at left, while a man in a yellow-striped shirt bends low over the stones and another worker in a white shirt and dark lungi stands behind him. A blue plastic barrel sits at left, and an orange dump truck and a few workers in the background add to the scene on sandy, excavated ground with piles of crushed stone.

December 15 20092009-12-15Outdoor construction site where workers lay grey stone paving blocks along a sandy strip beside red-painted steps and potted plants. Five men work in simple clothes: one in a striped green shirt and checked lungi bends over the stones, another in a white shirt and red headband marks the edge with a tool, and a man in an orange top and green headwear places stone. Piles of rebar and rubble lie to the left, with a fence and small trees behind.2009-12-17 +1 copiesA construction site photograph showing workers building a low wall of blue-grey dressed stone blocks bedded in mortar on excavated reddish-brown earth. A man in a striped light shirt and blue trousers, with a grey cloth tied on his head, leans over the wall and spreads mortar with a trowel. Beside him, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands with a cloth on his head, and at right a man in a light shirt and green lungi stands in sandals. Loose cut stones lie scattered across the ground, with metal basins and rubble behind them.2009-10-15December 12 20062006-12-12 +1 copiesOutdoor construction site with reddish-brown earth, where workers lay grey concrete paving blocks along a trench-edged path. A yellow tandem road roller stands in the background beside a stack of concrete pipes and thatched sheds. Men in white dhotis and shirts walk across the site, while workers in checked lungis and blue-and-white shirts kneel to set blocks. Women in saris carry stones and baskets, and a blue drum sits at left with a yellow hose. No one in the scene is identifiable as a person by visible cues, so the photo shows an ordinary building project.2008-04-10April 10 20082008-04-10April 10 20082008-04-10 +1 copiesA photo of an outdoor construction site of red earth with trenches being dug and lined with grey concrete blocks. Several workers in white dhotis, checked lungis and saris, including women carrying stones and baskets on their heads, lay blocks and clear rubble. A yellow steamroller stands in the background beside stacks of paving stones, and a blue barrel sits at left near a yellow hose. No one wears saffron or ornate ceremonial dress, and no person is clearly identifiable as a person, so the page's mention of him is not supported by any visible candidate.2008-04-10Outdoor construction scene beside a grey stone boundary wall with red brick coping and green shrubs and trees behind. Three labourers work on a concrete or mortar strip: a man in a white shirt and grey trousers holds a long-handled trowel, a man in a checked shirt, blue-and-white lungi and red headcloth stands watching, and a shirtless man in a lungi pours from a round metal pan along a rope-guided line. Dry earth lies in the foreground. A small white plaque or stone sits atop the wall.2006-12-19November 18 20142014-11-18December 12 20062006-12-12 +1 copiesA construction site at an outdoor ashram-area compound shows labourers handling large cut stone blocks.
