A photograph of an event serving food from steel vessels. A young man in an orange-brown shirt, white shorts and a red backpack leans forward holding a metal tray. Seated on a bench at the right is a smiling man with short dark hair wearing a saffron-orange robe over a red top, with a pink cloth draped on his lap. Several steel pots with lids sit on a table and bench, and food is scattered on the bench surface. Behind them a crowd of about twenty people in white and orange clothing, some wearing lanyards, stands watching and some with hands pressed together. The setting is a covered hall with a dirt floor.
