Two villagers sit smiling on a white concrete step against a pale white wall. A man on the left wears a light blue collared shirt, an orange-and-white checked cloth over his shoulder and a green-checked lungi, holding a folded white paper packet. A woman beside him wears a turquoise blouse, a maroon saree with a green and white border and a pink petticoat visible below, with a red bindi and a thin necklace. Both are laughing and the image is bright and washed out.
