A photograph of a ruined stone gateway in an overgrown Angkor-style temple complex, with a carved gabled lintel and tall square pillars framing a doorway. Large tree trunks and dense foliage surround the structure, and fallen sandstone blocks lie scattered across the sandy path in the foreground. A single adult man in a light grey short-sleeved shirt and dark trousers walks through the doorway. He is not wearing saffron or orange clothing and no rudraksha, crown or other distinctive a person cues are visible, so his identity is not established.
