A dirt road runs through a rural compound lined with palm trees, shrubs and small trees under a pale sky. A herd of cows, mostly black and white with some brown, walks along the road. A woman in an orange and red sari stands among them near a pile of straw, and a man in a white shirt stands at right beside a haystack. A red-painted wall and a utility pole with wires sit in the background, along with a blue hose lying on the ground at left.
