Photograph of a long-haired man in a saffron-orange shawl with a gold bead necklace and a red bindi, standing in a crowded temple-like setting with a multicoloured cloth hanging behind him. Beside him stand a shaved-headed man in orange with a gold necklace and armband and a shaved-headed man in orange at the right edge, with several onlookers in the background. Based on the visible cues of long swept hair, ornate gold necklace and saffron clothing, this appears to be a person standing among the attending devotees.
