Night-time outdoor gathering on a large open ground lit by rows of white floodlights on poles, with a vast crowd of seated devotees in white and pastel clothing filling rows of white plastic chairs. In the foreground, a cluster of people crowds around the edge of a raised cream-coloured platform. Several men wear white dhotis and shirts, some with saffron or orange shawls and rudraksha-style beads; a young woman in an orange-and-white sari stands among them, and an older white-haired woman in white sits at the front. Orange banners hang along the far edge of the ground beneath the lights, and a faint bokeh of lens flare crosses the dark sky above.
