A photograph inside a room with a painted forest backdrop of large banyan-like trees. On the left, a person in a red shawl with a white forehead band and red bindi, wearing gold earrings and a bangle, smiles and gestures toward a grey-bearded man on the right. That man wears an orange shawl over peach-coloured robes, with a blue-and-white striped towel draped over his arm, and presses his palms together in greeting. A man in an orange turban and orange clothing with a white beaded necklace stands at the far right, and a bald person's head is partly visible at the lower left. Appearance-based candidates are not distinctive enough to confirm a person's presence, so no identification is made.

A photograph of a person in a red shawl with white vertical forehead markings and a red bindi, smiling and offering something from a folded cloth to an elderly bearded man in a tan knit cap, orange shawl and dark vest over a pink garment. Several saffron-robed and orange-turbaned men stand behind them in front of a painted backdrop of a large banyan tree. A golden bangle is visible on the offering hand, and a small table with a cream cloth is in the foreground.

Four or more people are visible in the scene.2013-02-08February 08 20132013-02-08February 08 20132013-02-08February 08 20132013-02-08A photograph of a man in a red shawl and reddish-brown dhoti with a white vertical tilak on his forehead and gold bangles, extending his hands to exchange an item with an elderly sadhu.
