Two people in orange saffron robes stand with their backs to the camera outside a thatched-roof structure covered by a teal green shade net. In the foreground a young sapling with broad green leaves is staked upright inside a wire mesh guard set into the dirt ground. The person on the left wears an orange shawl with red border and orange dhoti; the person on the right has long dark hair in a braid, an orange top with red undershirt and an orange shawl. The scene suggests tree planting at an ashram, with dry earth, a cloudy sky and bamboo fencing at the edge.
