A photograph of three people seated on red brick steps beside a grassy slope with small decorative flags. In the centre, a smiling man with long dark hair and a red bindi wears a loose saffron-orange robe and sits barefoot. To his left, a woman with a dark braid wears a white blouse with blue and patterned trim and a dark beaded mala. To his right, a man with greying hair wears a white t-shirt, grey trousers, a dark beaded necklace and a gold bracelet, gesturing as he talks. A partly visible hand in the lower foreground belongs to another person. The saffron-robed man appears to be a person by appearance cues: long swept hair, saffron clothing and a ritual mark, seated among devotees on temple steps.
