A barefoot man with long dark wavy hair sits on a concrete ledge in front of a roadside shop stocked with snack packets, bottled drinks, jars and Panasonic and Coca-Cola cartons. He wears a loose saffron-orange wrap over his shoulders and body and orange dhoti-style cloth, holds a wooden staff with a pale carved handle across his lap, and clasps his hands while gazing upward with a smile. A cardboard box sits to his left. Appearance cues are long swept hair and saffron clothing with a wooden staff, consistent with a person seated as a sannyasi.2006-05-31Outdoor photograph of two smiling men in saffron-orange shawls seated on pale rocky ground.
