The mud is thick and sticky, and the person is struggling to dig through it. The shovel is repeatedly lifted and dropped into the pile, causing the mud to splash around. The person's movements are slow and deliberate, indicating the difficulty of the task. The background is not visible due to the close-up shot of the digging action.
