A man in a light blue checked short-sleeved shirt, dark trousers, sunglasses and an orange-red cap stands on dusty ground beside a riverbank. A white tarpaulin with a yellow edge lies spread on the sand, palm fronds grow nearby, and a wide brown river with a sandy shore stretches behind under a hazy sky. A concrete structure sits at the right edge. The setting suggests flood-affected land at the river edge.

September 2006 - Sindhanur flood reliefOutdoor photo on a dry, cracked riverbank beside a wide brownish river under hazy sky, with green shrubs and trees. A man in a plain white kurta with a dark rudraksha-style mala stands at centre, looking down. Around him men stand and kneel: a man in a red polo shirt, a man in a light blue shirt and dark trousers wearing a mala, a man in a white shirt at right, a man in a white vest and green lungi on a phone, and a seated man in a white shirt writing on a paper pad at lower centre. Scattered stones and sticks lie on the ground. Several people are visible, the central figure has no distinctive crown, saffron or ornate cues, so identity is uncertain.September 2006 - Sindhanur flood reliefSeptember 2006 - Sindhanur flood reliefPhotograph of flood damage in a village.

Several people are in the water on the left, some partly submerged and swimming or wading, and a young shirtless boy stands at the water's edge on the rocks. Two men in light shirts and dark trousers stand on the rocky bank on the right, and an orange-coloured cable or rope runs across the foreground over the water.
