Three Indian colleagues are working together. From left to right. A man with a short brown beard is smiling across at two female colleagues. He is wearing a white shirt. In the middle, a female colleague is working at a silver laptop and has dark hair to just past her shoulders. She is wearing a blue shirt. Finally there is a second woman making notes in her notebook. She is wearing a white patterned scarf and blue and red patterned elbow length top. Her hair is in a braid.
