A photograph of a man in a saffron-orange robe with long swept-back dark hair and a bare arm reaching out to hand a yellow banana to a man in a white shirt, who holds the fruit with a small blue-and-white box beneath it. Behind them, several men in white and light shirts stand watching, including a bald man in white with an orange-trimmed garment and a dark beaded necklace. The saffron-robed figure has long swept-back hair and rudraksha-style beads, matching the page's Swamiji cues, so this is a probable Swamiji in person. A printed copyright caption appears in the lower corner of the photo.
