Indoor photo of a home visit. A long-haired figure in an orange saffron garment and layered purple and magenta flower garlands sits on a white-covered bed, extending a hand to a man in a blue shirt who bends forward to receive it. Behind them, four men stand watching: two in white shirts, one in a white-and-black patterned shirt and one in a grey checked shirt. A wooden cabinet and window blind are in the background, and a plate of food sits on a white table in the foreground. The seated figure shows distinctive long swept hair, orange saffron clothing and garlands, so a person appearance is noted.

January 11 20102010-01-11A seated figure in an orange sleeveless top and orange garment, wearing flower garlands of purple and red blossoms, sits on a white-covered sofa in a room with wooden cabinets and a wall air conditioner. A man kneeling in a light blue shirt and dark trousers holds a red fruit and a small flower object before the seated figure, performing an offering or padapuja. Behind them, several men in white shirts and dhotis and a woman in an orange sari stand watching. On a low white table in front sits a bowl of yellow paste or food. A red box with sweets and items lies at left. The seated figure's long dark hair and orange clothing match the presentation cues for a sannyasi, but the appearance is not clear enough to confirm identity, so the candidate is uncertain.2010-01-11 +1 copiesA photograph of a living room visit during a padapuja.
