A photograph of an interior room with bare grey walls and a concrete floor, lit by daylight from an open doorway. A tall figure with long dark hair, wearing a flowing orange-saffron robe, walks through the room in silhouette, facing left. Behind in the doorway, two more people in orange robes stand outside against green trees, one with a shaved head. A draped green cloth covers a piece of furniture on the right, and an electrical box and a small appliance sit on the left wall. The scene resembles a sannyasi walking through a newly built ashram room with two companions.

Four people walk down the hallway: a young man in a white shirt on the right carries an orange cloth bag and wears a lanyard-style cord; in front of him a shaved-headed monk in orange robes walks with his hands together in front of his body; beside him a woman in orange sannyasi robes gestures toward a doorway on the left; another figure in orange robes is partly visible behind them.

On the right a figure in an orange turban and orange wrap stands at the threshold, and a woman in orange sari with red border walks on the left.

The scene appears to be a gathering of sannyasis at an ashram hall.2009-12-30A photograph taken from inside a bare white hall looking out through a doorway toward a palm-lined courtyard. Three saffron-clad figures walk toward the viewer: on the left a figure with long hair and a rudraksha mala in orange robes, in the centre a bearded sadhu in orange with a mala, and on the right a long-haired figure in a flowing orange-red robe with a large gold necklace, appearing to be a person based on the long hair, ornate gold necklace and saffron clothing. A small child in white stands near the doorway, and a white vehicle is parked outside among palm trees.
