A photo taken under a corrugated tin shelter at an outdoor relief distribution. A man in an orange-saffron robe with an orange head wrap stands on a raised concrete step with his hand near his face, while a younger man in white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha-style mala and a bare upper body stands beside him holding a yellow umbrella overhead. In the foreground a woman with a long braid and a multicoloured checked shawl faces away. Behind them large steel cooking vessels and pots sit on the ground, and a woman in a green head covering works at a pot. Blue plastic sheets and a striped canopy frame the scene, and a man in orange shawl and white dhoti stands at the right edge. The orange-robed man may be a person based on his saffron robe and orange head wrap, though the appearance is not conclusive.

January 03 20122012-01-03A standing figure in an orange saffron robe and matching orange head wrap stands under a open-sided corrugated roof shelter, with a bamboo rope fence nearby. Seated in the foreground are several people: a man with a bare upper body and a woman with her hair in a bun wearing a plaid cloth, viewed from behind. A striped blue and green canopy stretches at left, with palm fronds and a tree visible outside. The setting resembles a relief camp, with a cyclone-damaged landscape behind. The standing figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person, though it is uncertain from the image alone.2012-01-03A photograph of a covered outdoor relief distribution area under a corrugated tin roof with striped awnings.
