A photograph of a long outdoor line of devotees standing in a sandy open ground beneath trees and a partly cloudy sky. Most people wear white: men in white shirts and dhotis or trousers, women in white or off-white sarees and some with orange or coloured borders. A man at the left edge in a white shirt holds an orange cloth bag, and a woman with a grey handbag stands nearby. On the right, older men in white and a man in a brown dhoti stand at the end of the queue. A wooden railing sits at the lower left.
