In the lower right, a man in a saffron-orange robe with a gold necklace and bangles bends over a white cloth on the ground, while a bearded older man in white kneels and leans forward with hands together. Surrounding devotees, some wearing glasses, watch closely, and bananas hang in bunches at the top right. The scene suggests a temple inauguration gathering, but no clear appearance-based cues meet the threshold to identify a specific person as a person.2008-04-19July 21 20102010-07-21November 13 20062006-11-13A photograph in a bright white-walled room of a man in an orange-saffron robe with a tilak on his forehead, wearing a long white-and-red garland and a rudraksha mala, receiving greetings from an elderly man in white clothes who holds his hand.

Behind them are a copper vessel and a brass oil lamp on a pale surface, with red-and-orange cloth hanging in the background. The setting appears to be a temple-like hall with a stone lion carving and red railings.2010-07-13
