A photograph of two men exchanging a small yellow fruit on a covered outdoor veranda beside a white wall and wooden-framed glass doors. A long-haired man in saffron-orange cloth with a red shawl across his shoulder, bare-chested under the wrap, extends the fruit with both hands toward an older white-bearded man wearing a gold-yellow shawl with red borders and gold bangles. A white plastic chair and folded mattresses sit at left, and a standing man in a white shirt and dark trousers watches at the edge. Appearance-based cues on the saffron-clad man include long swept hair, a red shawl and a bare-chested wrap, so he is a person candidate and the image is an in-person moment; the other man is a devotee receiving the offering.
