A barefoot figure in a saffron-orange robe with a matching orange turban walks across a dry, dusty clearing toward a large dense green tree. A bearded man in white shirt and white dhoti walks on the right edge. A long pale stone slab lies in the foreground. Behind them, a rough dark stone wall and low green shrubs sit against the trees. The robed figure wears a draped orange cloth and appears to have long hair under the turban; the clothing and turban are the visible cues, so the appearance-based label is a person, a sannyasi walking outdoors.

Behind him are concrete fence posts, scattered young plants and grass, and a thatched structure at the right edge. The figure is seen from behind, so no facial features are visible. The visible person is a sannyasi in saffron robes; a person's identity is not determinable from appearance because the figure is seen from behind with no distinctive face or presentation cues.A photograph of a stone-paved garden path lined with white flowering shrubs and green trees. In the foreground, a tall white pole stands at left. Two men walk toward the camera: the front figure wears a saffron-orange robe, an orange head wrap, and a rudraksha mala around the neck, and raises one hand in greeting; behind him a man in a white kurta and white trousers carries a small notebook. The scene is sunlit with yellow blossoms in the trees.2003 - Exclusive Portraits Collection2003 - Exclusive Portraits CollectionOutdoors on grass among tall palm trunks and green foliage, a man in a saffron-orange wrap with a shawl draped over one shoulder stands barefoot-looking in orange sandals, eyes lowered, hands together in front of him. To the left, a man in white kurta and white trousers holds a folded orange umbrella and wears a rudraksha mala and a red bindi. At the right edge, a bearded man in orange robes with a rudraksha mala and eyeglasses stands partly cropped. The figure in the centre has long swept-back hair and wears a rudraksha mala with ornate clothing, but the appearance is not conclusive enough to establish identity from these cues alone.2009-11-30Outdoor photo beneath a large spreading tree on a dry dirt path with patches of grass and scattered stones.
