Indoor home scene in a living room with cream walls, a framed deity picture on the wall, a wall calendar, a small television on a stand, and a red door. A man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl stands centre, wearing a long garland of white and red flowers, smiling and gesturing with both hands toward a man prostrating on the floor in white clothes. Around them stand an older man in white dhoti and shirt at left, an older woman in a teal blouse and pink-and-white sari, a man in a plaid shirt behind, and several children in colourful dresses and skirts watching. A woman in a light blue sari stands at right edge. The orange-clad man has long swept-back hair, a visibly distinctive saffron robe and garland cues, so this is an appearance-based a person in person, though the visible cues are limited.

A young man in an orange-saffron robe with a gold border and a garland of white jasmine and red flowers sits front left, smiling and raising one hand in greeting, with a red bindi on his forehead. Behind and around him stand an elderly man in white with a white beard, a young girl, a woman in a teal top, a man in a white shirt, and several children, including a boy in a blue polo with a rudraksha-style mala and a small girl in black. The man in saffron has no clear visible a person cues beyond the orange robe and garland, so the identity is unsure. Seven people are visible.2011-05-17June 22 20142014-06-22June 27 20142014-06-27A photograph of a home visit ritual indoors.
