Outdoor photo of a bearded man in profile, seated with his bare upper back toward the camera and his head turned to the right, smiling. His long dark dreadlocks are gathered high on his head and threaded with rudraksha beads, and he wears a rust-red cloth draped around his neck and shoulders. A white horizontal mark is painted across his forehead. Behind him is a bare red-brown earth area with patches of grass, scattered palm trees, and a low wall and corrugated structure at right. Only one person is visible, and the appearance-based identity cues are distinctive, so this is a person in person, described by his role as a seated sannyasi with rudraksha-beaded dreadlocks.
