A yellow Escorts mobile crane with a hook lifts a long grey granite slab on a dirt construction site at a temple-building project. A worker in an orange vest crouches beside the slab, and a second worker in a checked lungi and grey shirt stands near it. Two men in white shirts watch at left. Behind them stand a scaffold of bamboo and timber, a stone block structure, and trees. A small figure in white stands at the far right near a stone wall and a framed picture. The scene shows stone construction work rather than ritual activity.
