A man in a saffron-orange turban and matching orange wrap-around robe stands on a paved street in front of a pink-columned building with shuttered shopfronts. He has long dark hair falling past his shoulders, a darker rust-coloured inner garment visible at the arms, and his hands are clasped in front of him as he looks off to one side. Behind him a bicycle leans against the wall beside signage for STD/ISD/PCO telephone booths, and scattered litter lies on the ground.
