A bare-footed man in a grey short-sleeved shirt and red, white and green striped lungi, with a blue and white checked cloth tied around his head, bends over a shallow excavation. He is working among cut grey stone slabs and blocks laid in a trench with earth walls, beside a raised mound of reddish soil. Behind, a metal railing, a banyan tree trunk and a red cloth draped over a structure are visible.

Outdoor photograph of an excavation site beneath a large banyan tree with aerial roots. Deep trenches of reddish-brown earth expose stone foundations and cut stone blocks, with a pile of loose stones in one pit. In the background stands a shrine with an arched niche framed in white, holding a dark murti draped in red cloth with a garland. A metal railing encloses the site, and a man in a grey t-shirt and red-and-white checked lungi with a white headband stands at the trench edge. Two seated people in white sit near the left railing under the tree. Lighting stands and a white reflector are visible among the trees.2014-10-11October 11 20142014-10-11September 23 20142014-09-23November 05 20142014-11-05November 04 20142014-11-04November 05 20142014-11-05A worker in a pink full-sleeve shirt, plaid lungi and a red-and-white checked head cloth squats on dusty red earth, shaping a grey granite slab with a chisel and hammer. A yellow measuring tape lies across the stone and chips are scattered around it. Behind him is a large heap of crushed grey stone, more cut slabs lean on the ground, and a white plastic chair stands among construction debris, at an outdoor stone-working site.2006-12-19Outdoor construction work in a deep trench cut through reddish-brown earth. Four workers are visible: a man in a white shirt and checked lungi standing at the back edge, a man in a white shirt and maroon lungi with an orange head cloth standing at the right, a worker in a teal shirt and maroon lungi bending over and mixing or pouring from a blue bucket onto a pile of stones, and a worker in a red-and-green striped wrap bending over the trench floor. Wooden poles and rubble lie in the trench, and a red building with a red curtain and palm trees stand in the background.2014-09-23July 13 20142014-07-13December 12 20062006-12-12 +1 copiesJune 18 20132013-06-18A photo of an outdoor construction site beneath a large old banyan tree with hanging aerial roots. Three young men work in excavated trenches of reddish-brown soil. One crouches at left, shaping and setting a squared pale stone block with a trowel-like tool. Another stands on a mound of excavated earth placing stone blocks, wearing a white t-shirt with dark stripes and brown shorts. A third, in a red-green striped cloth and white top, bends over at right near a stone-lined edge. Cut stone slabs and loose rubble lie around the trench, with a hose along the left edge. No a person is visible.2014-11-04
