A dense crowd of devotees gathered under a striped and patterned canopy at night, lit by overhead bulbs and strings of blue and green lights. Most men wear white or light shirts, and several have white sacred ash or tilak marks on their foreheads. A young girl in a green top stands near the center. Plastic chairs line the edges, and a banana-leaf tree and a parked vehicle appear at the right. No identifiable a person figure is visible in the frame.2014-07-03November 27 20122012-11-27 +1 copiesPhoto 11726639 +1 copiesDense crowd of men and some women and children packed under a decorated tent canopy with striped fabric and colourful bunting at night, with electric lights strung along the poles. Many men wear white shirts and dhotis, several have white vibhuti or tilak marks on their foreheads, and one man in front raises two fingers in a V sign. Plastic chairs line the edges, and a small girl with an orange ribbon in her hair peers out from the group. The gathering appears to be a padapuja or devotee event, though the central focus is not visible; the photo shows the audience rather than the presiding figure.2014-07-03July 03 20142014-07-03Photo 116877352014-07-04A large crowd of men fills an open-air venue at night, packed closely together.
