A candid photograph taken under a corrugated metal roof at a simple open-sided hall. In the foreground, a smiling person in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits at a table draped in a floral yellow and pink cloth, with a steel jug and a plastic pitcher on it. Facing them from the right, a grey-haired man in a teal shirt gestures with raised hands. Behind, a man in a white shirt stands near the wall, and another man in white is partly visible at the far left edge. The saffron-clad figure has long dark hair under the turban, and the orange cloth and turban are the most distinctive visible cues, but the face and build alone do not establish identity.
