A photograph of a group walking single file along a dry, dusty dirt path lined with scrubby trees and tall grass. In the centre, a young man in a long saffron-orange wrap walks barefoot in sandals, with a red undergarment visible. Beside and behind him, a line of devotees in white and cream clothes with gold borders carry water bottles and wear thin beaded necklaces. On the right, another orange-clad figure in an orange kurta and wrap walks alongside, and a woman in white with a red forehead mark walks at the edge. Some participants wear white shirts and bright shawls. The scene reads as a sannyasi-led walking procession or pilgrimage on a country road.
