Outdoors under a shaded open structure with banana plants and trees behind, several men in plain white dhoti-style clothes eat from stainless steel plates of rice and food. The man in the centre, wearing a white kurta and a red bindi, lifts food to his mouth with his right hand. A young man at left holds a steel plate, another stands behind in white, and a man at right eats with his fingers, wearing a red thread and a bangle. Some wear red-and-white sacred threads around their necks. No visible candidate matches the a person description, so this is a meal of devotees after a ritual. Roughly half a dozen people are visible.2006-10-21September 01 20092009-09-01February 02 20142014-02-02 +1 copiesNovember 01 20152015-11-01November 01 20152015-11-01 +1 copiesOctober 07 20062006-10-07October 11 20142014-10-11 +1 copiesOutdoor photo under a thatched palm-leaf roof with leafy trees and banana plants behind.
