A toddler in a teal striped shirt wearing a rudraksha mala is offered a sweet by a man in saffron-orange clothing whose arm extends from the right edge of the frame. Around them, men in yellow and white shirts look on, and a woman with her hair pulled back stands at the lower left. A man in white with a red tilak on his forehead smiles beside the child, and a figure in orange and white stands behind him. A small paper slip is held in the lower right. The swami-type figure in orange is partly out of frame and is only partially visible, so no clear appearance-based identification is made.2008-03-28A photograph at an indoor event where a shaved-headed man in white ritual clothing with a red bindi sits smiling, holding a small child with curly hair in a blue striped shirt and a rudraksha-style beaded cord. The child holds a yellow fruit and a red apple is nearby. Behind him stands a young man in an orange shawl with a red forehead mark. At right, a person in orange clothing is seated near a white-draped bundle, and a white pedestal fan and red curtain are in the background. The man's identity is not established by appearance alone, so he is described by role as a man in white ritual clothing. Cues are insufficient to match the a person candidate.2008-03-28
