Several men in white shirts stand with palms pressed together in prayer around them, and a woman in white with a long braid stands at the right edge. The priest's features and clothing are consistent with the presentation the page describes, but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance, so the a person value is unsure. Five or more people are visible, so the count is in the 6-20 range.2013-07-07October 20 20102010-10-20April 18 20122012-04-18April 01 20112011-04-01A photograph of a devotional greeting at an indoor event. A man in a saffron-orange turban and orange-gold draped robe with a rudraksha mala and gold necklaces stands on the right, smiling, with his right hand raised to touch the forehead of a bowed man in a white shirt and rudraksha mala who has his palms pressed together in namaskar. Another man in an orange shawl stands beside them, and several people in white and orange clothing stand behind a railing.

A colourful backdrop with a warm yellow and orange design fills the background.2011-09-17November 26 20112011-11-26 +1 copies
